Topic Studios, the company behind films including Spencer and Spotlight, has snapped up the rights to New Yorker critic Emily Nussbaum’s Cue the Sun!: The Invention of Reality TV (https://www.amazon.com/Cue-Sun-Invention-Reality-TV/dp/0525508996). The book, released in June, "explores the tricksters, innovators and stars who invented the genre; its transformation from a few scrappy experiments into a huge industry; and the morally charged, liberating, sometimes tragic consequences of trying to extract something real from something fake," per Deadline. Cue the Sun! delves into such shows as An American Family, Queen for a Day, Candid Camera, Survivor, The Bachelor and The Real World.
