Netflix planning modern Three Musketeers movie

Netflix has picked up a pitch from Harrison Query to develop a modern take on Alexandre Dumas’ classic adventure tale The Three Musketeers. Eric Newman and Bryan Unkeless, who produced ‘Bright,’ will produce with Scott Glassgold.

Via THR: “The Three Musketeers”, set in 17th century France, tells the story of a young man named d’Artagnan, who wants to join a fabled king’s guard known as the Musketeers. He is rejected but meets reknown musketeers Athos, Porthos and Aramis, becoming embroiled with them in an adventure involving court intrigue and espionage.

While it’s early days in development, the take has been described as “Mission Impossible” in tone. Sounds pretty ace to me!!
