After a long delay due to the coronavirus pandemic, Fox has ordered the Scott Foley-starring dramedy pilot “The Big Leap” to series, the broadcast network revealed Wednesday.
Created by “Deception” mastermind and “Friday Night Lights” alum Liz Heldens, the “big-hearted, rowdy dramedy” follows “a group of diverse, down-on-their-luck characters attempting to change their lives by participating in a potentially life-ruining reality dance show that builds to a live production of Swan Lake. What this group of underdogs lack in dance training, they make up for with their edge, wit and desire to reimagine an iconic story to fit their own mold.”
