Having helped create the minute-by-minute television thriller “24,” Joel Surnow can take a more leisurely pace with his next project, a 10-hour mini-series about the Kennedy family. Muse Entertainment, a production company based in Montreal, said in a news release that the series “unveils secrets of the Kennedy family,” including the 35th president, John F. Kennedy. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the producers are in talks with a cable network for distribution in the United States. The series will be pitched to international outlets at a conference this weekend. An outspoken conservative, Mr. Surnow left “24” in 2008; he also created a short-lived satire, “The ½ Hour News Hour,” for the Fox News Channel. Muse said the series would be fair, “neither a hatchet job nor a valentine.”
