This weekend, he returned,\u201d the Comcast company teased, sharing that the series would air later this year. \u201cIn front of a huge crowd on Saturday night, Dynamo attempted the most ambitious and dangerous stunt of his career. The extraordinary spectacle saw him bound in a straitjacket, locked inside a burning car and suspended 100 feet in the air against the New York City skyline.\u201d<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>New York is central to the identities of the two magicians. \u201cHarry Houdini, widely regarded as the greatest magician and escapologist of all time, lived in New York and performed many of his most renowned stunts there,\u201d Sky highlighted. \u201cIn 2003, at an event in the city celebrating Houdini\u2019s legacy, Steven Frayne was given the name Dynamo \u2013 now [he is] one of the most recognized names in modern magic.\u201d<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>The series will consist of three interconnected episodes that see the English illusionist travel across America, pushing his skills to a new level as he retraces Houdini\u2019s steps in honor of his legacy 100 years after his death. Via the series, Dynamo asks the question: What would Houdini do if he were alive today?<br \/>\u00a0\u00a0<br \/>Said Shirley Jones, head of entertainment commissioning at Sky: \u201cWe\u2019re so excited to be working with Dynamo on a series that not only celebrates the enduring legacy of Harry Houdini but demonstrates the extraordinary skill, innovation and jaw-dropping talent that has made him one of the defining magicians of his generation. Combining rich storytelling, astonishing magic and breathtaking spectacle, the series promises a thrilling tribute to one of history\u2019s greatest showmen while showcasing Dynamo at the very top of his game.\u201d<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>The three hour-long episodes of <em>Dynamo vs Houdini<\/em> are a co-production between Shine TV, part of Banijay U.K., and Seventeen17. The showrunner and executive producer is Rowland French. The executive producers for Shine TV are Matt Bennett and Leon Wilson, while Frayne himself is the exec producer for Seventeen17. The director is James Tyndall, series producer is Sacha Clayton, with production executive Holly Sait. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/uspropertymoves.com\/?p=1334\">\u2018Mineshaft: The Cruising Murders\u2019 Review: An Engrossing if Incohesive Dive Into William Friedkin\u2019s Gay S&amp;M Thriller and Its Surrounding Controversy<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe series was commissioned by Phil Edgar-Jones, executive director, unscripted originals at Sky for C\u00e9cile\u00a0Frot-Coutaz, chief advertising and content officer at\u00a0Sky and\u00a0CEO of Sky Studios. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/uspropertymoves.com\/?p=1332\">Scott Pelley Shows Appreciation for Supporters Following \u201960 Minutes\u2019 Firing: \u201cDeeply Grateful\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8216;Dynamo vs Houdini&#8217; is a new series coming to\u00a0Sky as the illusionist retraces the legendary magician&#8217;s steps in the U.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1337,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[2,1054,98],"class_list":["post-1338","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-interesting","tag-international","tag-sky","tag-united-kingdom"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
