Herman Groman, a retired FBI agent in Las Vegas, may be going Hollywood.
Groman, who heads up security at the Orleans Hotel/Casino in Las Vegas, recently authored his first novel, a suspense thriller called “Pigeon Spring”.
Now, he says producer-director Joseph Merhi read the book and wants to make a movie out of it. Interestingly, the boook features a key character Matt Steel, who happens to be an ex-FBI agent who is also a director of security at a Las Vegas hotel.
Groman said he has spoken to Merhi a couple times and has another meeting scheduled Thursday in Las Vegas to talk about the film.
“I’m excited about it,” Groman told ticklethewire.com. , saying that the Merhi told him he was confident it was all going to happen.
He said the producer’s “vision is that he’d like to make a feature film and he envisions a spin off TV series based on the book.” Merhi has produced a number of movies including “The Whole Ten Yards” with Bruce Willis and Matthew Perry.
Groman retired from the FBI in 2005.
