THR is reporting that Adam Cozad has agreed to handle screenwriting duties for the upcoming THE GRAY MAN.

Based on Mark Greaney’s novel, TGM takes readers on a lightning-paced international chase where the hunter becomes the hunted. American operative Court Gentry, dubbed the Gray Man for his legendary skill as a shadowy killer for hire, races against time and battles teams of government assassins as he crisscrosses Europe to save one imprisoned family— knowing innocent lives hinge upon his success as a cold-blooded killer.

Adam has been attached to a number of adaptations including Christopher Reich’s RULES OF DECEPTION, David Morrell’s BROTHERHOOD OF THE ROSE and the next Jack Ryan film. Cozad learned writing from his uncle, a playwright, and his first screenplay, Dubia, has actor Eric Bana attached as an exec producer.
