# Terence Winter teams with ‘Age of Disclosure’ director to adapt UFO insider’s story

### Project Overview

Emmy-winning screenwriter **Terence Winter is collaborating with filmmaker Dan Farah**, the director-producer of *The Age of Disclosure*, on a scripted series based on the forthcoming memoir *Out of the Shadows*. The project will adapt the account of Jay Stratton, a former senior U.S. intelligence official whose story centers on alleged government knowledge of UFOs and non-human intelligence.

The collaboration was reported by *The Hollywood Reporter* on Sept. 24, 2026. The series is currently **seeking distribution**, and no network, streaming platform, production timetable or release date has been announced. Additional details about the project’s format, cast and financing were not provided.

### The Story Behind the Adaptation

Stratton is described as a former senior U.S. intelligence official and, according to the report, **the highest-ranking former government official to publicly claim the existence of non-human intelligent life**. His forthcoming memoir, *Out of the Shadows*, is expected to serve as the source material for the series.

The book is presented as a behind-the-scenes account of what Stratton characterizes as a U.S. government cover-up involving UFOs—now more commonly referred to in official settings as unidentified anomalous phenomena, or UAP. Those allegations remain highly controversial. Public claims about recovered non-human craft, secret programs and institutional concealment have generated substantial congressional and media attention, but they have not been conclusively established through publicly available evidence.

### Creative Team

Winter brings extensive television and film experience to the adaptation. He is known for his work on *The Sopranos*, for which he earned major industry recognition, as well as the film *The Wolf of Wall Street*. He is also associated with the television series *Tulsa King*. His involvement places a prominent Hollywood screenwriter at the center of a project dealing with one of the most contested subjects in contemporary government and national-security reporting.

Farah, meanwhile, is leading the project following his work on the independent documentary *The Age of Disclosure*. The documentary’s connection to the adaptation reflects a broader effort to bring UFO-related testimony and allegations to mainstream entertainment audiences through both nonfiction and scripted storytelling.

### Winter’s Statement

“For all of human history, mankind has wondered whether we are the only intelligent life in the universe,” Winter said in a statement cited by *The Hollywood Reporter*. “Jay Stratton’s shocking true story answers that question and more as it del…” The published source material ends mid-quotation, so the remainder of Winter’s statement was not available in the provided report.

The wording underscores the project’s intended dramatic framing, but the series’ eventual approach—whether it presents Stratton’s account as established fact, contested testimony or the basis for a fictionalized thriller—has not been disclosed. As the project moves toward distribution, its treatment of evidence, sourcing and competing interpretations will likely be central to how audiences and industry observers evaluate it.
