The drama, which is in development, would see the 'Law & Order' mastermind branch out to shows on three of the big four broadcast networks.
Mega-producer dikk Wolf is looking to expand to a third of the big four broadcast networks.
The mastermind behind NBC's Law & Order and Chicago franchises and CBS' FBI is rebooting the former Fox drama New York Undercover, with Disney-owned ABC near a deal for the potential series.
The reboot, which Wolf's agent and WME head of television Rick Rosen cryptically mentioned Tuesday during a Paley Center panel, is written by Ben Watkins (Amazon's Hand of God), with Wolf and his Universal Television-based Wolf Entertainment banner's Arthur Forney and Peter Jankowski attached. The drama would be a co-production between Universal Television and ABC Studios. (Wolf's CBS rookie procedural FBI follows a similar producing split as CBS TV Studios owns 50 percent of the series alongside UTV.) Reps for ABC, Universal Television and Wolf declined comment as deals for the drama have not been finalized.
Co-created by Wolf and Kevin Arkadie, New York Undercover aired for four seasons on Fox from 1994-98. Malik Yoba, Michael DeLorenzo, Lauren Velez and Josh Hopkins starred in the drama that was originally produced by Universal Television. The show took place in the same universe as Wolf's original Law & Order and its subsequent spinoffs (and Homicide: Life on the Street). The series is notable for being the first police procedural on U.S. television to boast two people of color in the leading roles.
