Showtime is developing “Intelligence,” a spy thriller from “Hurt Locker” and “Zero Dark Thirty” alum Mark Boal.
The pay cable network has given “Intelligence” a series commitment and opened a writers room. Boal would write, direct and executive produce the series, making this his first TV project. It does not yet have a formal series order.
“As he showed with both ‘The Hurt Locker’ and ‘Zero Dark Thirty,’ Mark truly excels at transforming current events into gripping, scripted drama,” said Gary Levine, president of entertainment, Showtime Networks Inc. “When he told us he wanted to use those same, extraordinary abilities to create his first television series, we leapt at it.”
