Netflix has optioned the upcoming sci-fi thriller novel Change Agent.

Written by Daemon scribe Daniel Suarez, Change Agent follows an Interpol agent who has suffered a genetic attack that leaves him looking like the dangerous cartel leader he has been ordered to bring down.  

Josh Bratman will produce under his Immersive Pictures banner, which is currently working on another book adaptation, Max Brooks' Harlem Hellfighters with Will Smith's Overbrook Entertainment.

ICM repped the novel, which Penguin Random House will release on April 18.
