HBO has passed on the comedy pilot Tilda, which starred Diane Keaton as a powerful and reclusive Hollywood blogger (not unlike Deadline's Nikki Finke). The hot pilot had a great pedigree - co-written by Bill Condon and Cynthia Mort, directed by Condon, and starring Keaton, Elliot Page and Jason Patric. But a rift between Condon and Mort during the production of the pilot became messy and ultimately public. Then after the pilot was deep-sixed, HBO tried hard to make the show work by ordering additional scripts and hiring Six Feet Under alum Alan Poul, Alexa Junge and John Hoffman as executive producers. But the option on the actors was set to expire in mid-March, and HBO gave the thumbs down "despite everyone's best efforts", the pay cable network said in a statement. While Tilda was conceived and written and developed without Finke's knowledge or involvement, word is HBO is still interested in a show about her, this time with her on board from the beginning.
