In March 2016, NBC announced its intent to broadcast a live television production of "A Few Good Men", starring Alec Baldwin as Col. Jessup, in the second quarter of 2018, with a teleplay adapted by Sorkin from his original script. The broadcast would be executive produced by Craig Zadan and Neil Meron, and patterned upon NBC's ongoing series of live Broadway musicals. However, NBC has yet to announce an airdate. "Variety" reported that the availability of Sorkin, Zadan, and Meron may have had an impact, noting that Sorkin had to represent his 2017 film "Molly's Game" during awards season, while Zadan and Meron (who have produced all of NBC's live musicals) were committed to other projects (such as "Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert" in 2018, and a later canceled production of "Hair" in 2019) being produced by NBC in lieu of "Bye Bye Birdie", which had been delayed multiple times in order to accommodate Jennifer Lopez's other projects. Zadan died on August 20, 2018, at the age of 69.
