"I just pitched it to HBO two weeks ago in L.A. It went great. Ideally, we're trying to get them to do a two-year limited series. I prefer that over a film. We would have a second ARG tying into the second album and ties into the series and they all happen together with a budget needed to pull that all off. There would be a tour down the road. The record completes the story, the ending that no one knows.

I know what happens. I knew when I started it. And it's not what people think. "

Lawrence Bender (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004744/) has been working with Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor to create a television TV series based on the 2007 album Year Zero
