The pilot was co-written by Carlton Cuse (“Lost”) and Randall Wallace (“Braveheart”) and directed by Wallace. The two are joined by Barry Jossen (“Sex and the City”) as executive producers. Shot on location in Virginia, the potential series also features Christopher O’Shea (“Baby Daddy”) as John’s best friend and brother-in-law Robert Sumner.
