posted by Outsiders in Television at 01:04 PM on 2009.11.06
J.J. Abrams wants to take a hands-on approach to “Undercovers,” his pilot at NBC.
In addition to co-writing and executive producing the project with Josh Reims, Abrams is in talks to direct the Warner Bros. TV-produced pilot.
NBC’s “Undercovers,” about a husband and wife working together as spies, has been described as a mix between “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” and “The Bourne Identity.”
Schedule permitting, Abrams will make “Undercovers” the first TV pilot he has directed since 2004’s “Lost” opener. ABC’s two-hour “Lost” opening is considered one of the best-directed pilots of all time.
