Fox Going to the Wolves in ‘Bitches’
Fox network has announced work has begun on a new hour-long series, Bitches, described by The Hollywood Reporter as “a dramedy about a quartet of female friends in New York who are werewolves.”
Given the November 2009 release of both The Wolfman and the lycanthropes in New Moon, plus the Big Bad Wolf in NBC’s Fables project, it looks to be a hairy fall.
Michael Dougherty (X2: X-Men United) is writing the script for Warner Bros. TV which received a pilot script commitment complete with penalties if no film is shot. Gretchen Berg and Aaron Harberts (Pepper Dennis) will serve as executive producers alongside Dougherty.
Dougherty wrote about werewolves in Trick ‘r Treat a Warner Bros, film that got dumped earlier this year and will be a direct-to-DVD release.
Holy Crap…with a name like that, how can I not check it out? But if its merely Sex and the City with werewolves…I don't know if I can stand to see a werewolf pining for Balahnick shoes, I really don't…:)
I figure it's a 50-50 chance it changes that title by the time it premiers.
No kidding…It would be interesting to see the initial results from the test screenings!
"Fables" has moved from NBC to ABC. http://www.newsarama.com/tv/120808-Fables-ABC.htm…
