Sure in a few decades maybe, but I don't know, the size of the US audience and how many people who were directly effected by it (i.e being there or losing family members) who would still be in the demographic of who you'd be marketing it towards just doesn't seem doable in my head.

Or at least it wouldn't go down without a shit storm around it

Nah, you'd just do a timeskip near the end with the raid on Bin Laden's compound and have the scene with them unceremoniously dumping his body into the ocean and everyone would love it.

Also it's been over 2 decades, the event doesn't even hold much of a meaning to anyone under 30, or more generally anyone outside of the US. If Family Guy is allowed to do parodies of it, its open season for adaptation imo
