SERVICES TO SHARE THIS PAGE. _THE AMERICANS_’ Joe Weisberg and Joel Fields have inked overall production deals with FX PRODUCTIONS, the company announced today. The 2-year agreements between


the Cold War-based drama’s creator/EP and showrunner will cover all projects developed for TV as well as their work on _The Americans_ itself. “Working with Joe and Joel on _The Americans 


_has been nothing short of extraordinary,” said Eric Schrier as he and fellow Presidents of Original Programming, FX Networks and FX Productions Nick Grad made the new deals public. “Joel


and Joe are two of the most talented, genuine, gracious, and hardest-working guys in the business.  We look forward to creating more great programs with each of them.” The feeling is


obviously mutual as former CIA employee and novelist Weisberg made clear. “I actually wanted to sign a 30-year deal, but the actuaries wouldn’t sign off on it,” said Weisberg. “I look


forward to continuing our work together on _The Americans_ and to developing some terrific new material with them as well,” added Fields of his work with Weisberg and FX. The critically


acclaimed _The Americans_ recently completed its second season and is coming back for a third cycle next year. WATCH ON DEADLINE 1 Comments JavaScript is required to load the comments.
