CBS is betting that Joshua Safran‘s newest project will be quite the smash.
The Peacock Net has bought Safran’s currently untitled legal drama, our sister site Deadline reports.
Safran (Quantico, Smash) will write the potential series, which will follow a powerful corporate attorney who signs on to defend her rich-yet-estranged husband when he is arrested for the long-ago — and still unsolved — murder of his first Mrs.
Safran also will executive-produce, along with Aaron Kaplan (Life in Pieces) and Dana Honor (9JKL). Kapital Entertainment and CBS Studios will produce.
The former Quantico showrunner, who stepped down from that ABC series in May, reacted to his good news Wednesday on Twitter:
