Naya Rivera, Ne-Yo and Faizon Love have joined YouTube Red and Lionsgate series “Step Up: High Water,” which is based on the film franchise.
“High Water” is currently in production in Atlanta. The 10-episode drama focuses on several ambitious young dancers in a contemporary performing arts school located there.
The series is created and executive produced by showrunner Holly Sorenson. Adam Shankman, Jennifer Gibgot and Meredith Milton — all producers of the original “Step Up” films — will also executive produce, along with Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan Tatum, who co-starred in the first movie. Shankman also directed the pilot.
