'Minority Report' TV show gets Fox pilot order

You didn’t need a Precog to see this coming: Fox has given a pilot order to its TV series version of Minority Report.

Since September, Fox has been developing a small-screen version of Steven Spielberg’s 2002 sci-fi film, which starred Tom Cruise as a cop who worked with precognitive seers to stop crime before it happens.

Fox’s series version is set 10 years after the events of the film, which concluded with law enforcement’s Precrime division being disbanded. In the show, one Precog, still plagued by visions, teams with a female detective who is haunted by her past.

Max Borenstein (Godzilla) wrote the pilot, which has not yet been cast. Kevin Falls is the showrunner and an executive producer along with Justin Falvey and Darryl Frank. The pilot is from Amblin Television and Paramount Television in association with Twentieth Century Fox TV.
