Coppola and company will be turning The Conversation into a television series. It will pick up where the movie left off, so put that into your Netflix queue. From Variety:
Producer Tony Krantz (”24″) is teaming with scribes Christopher McQuarrie (”The Usual Suspects”) and Erik Jendresen (”Band of Brothers”) to turn Francis Ford Coppola’s “The Conversation” into a weekly series for ABC.
This is great news for team members of The Crack Team, which made this an official CT Classic Movie long ago. I think this is a great crew to make it happen, judging by their body of work (although I didn’t watch Band of Brothers). I’m just curious who will star. Hackman is 76, so that might be a bit of a stretch. But we’d need a gruff, everyman for the part. Any suggestions?

I have yet to see every episode (maybe a Netflix pic?) but Band of Brothers was awesome.

Cool, I’ll try to get to it at some point, after I’ve caught up with 24.
