Jennifer Lopez is building out her producing slate even more.
The multi-hyphenate is attached to executive produce a legal drama in development at CBS by way of her Nuyorican Productions company, Variety has learned.
The untitled series hails from “Royal Pains” alum Michael Rauch, and centers around polar opposite identical twin brothers who duke it out in their personal lives but are at their best teaming up in the courtroom.
Rauch penned the pilot and will serve as an exec producer along with Lopez, Nuyorican’s Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas and Daniel A. Thomas. CBS Television Studios and Universal Television are co-producing.
For Lopez, the scripted drama is one of many projects she’s working on behind the camera. NBC recently greenlit a new reality dance competition, “World of Dance,” with Lopez exec producing. Lopez and Goldsmith-Thomas are also exec producers on “Shades of Blue,” which is currently in production on its second season, and Freeform’s “The Fosters,” which is in the midst of its fourth season. The Nuyorican Prods. duo also produced the indie hit “The Boy Next Door,” which Lopez starred in 2015.
In front of the camera, Lopez stars in “Shades of Blue,” and recently signed on to play drug lord Griselda Blanco in an HBO film that is in development.
