Covenant with Death | Ridley Scott

[Cremildo]

In an interview for Dazed Digital, Scott reveals he intends to adapt John Harris' 1961 novel.

"And then I’ve got a First World War film based on John Harris’s Covenant with Death.” Scott describes the book to me, which he’s adored for 50 years. “It’s a marvellous narrative that I’ve never seen before in a war film. It’s funny and class-conscious, because you’ve got miners mixing with middle-class men. You discover: one guy dies, just like anybody else.”
