David Chase, acclaimed creator of 'The Sopranos,' is making a significant return to HBO with a limited series titled 'Project: MKUltra,' focused on a controversial chapter in Central Intelligence Agency history.

Adapted from John Lisle's non-fiction book, the series delves into the clandestine Project MKUltra, a program initiated in 1953 by the CIA that involved unethical experimentation on human subjects. The show's narrative will center around Sidney Gottlieb, the chemist and head of the CIA's psychedelic program, highlighting his role in the mind-control tests conducted during the Cold War.

This marks Chase's return to television after 'The Sopranos,' which earned him seven Emmys and remains a seminal crime drama. The series is anticipated to bring a critical examination of the clandestine operations and moral complexities inherent in such historical events.
