Brokeback scribes developing show for Fox

The Oscar-winning writers of 2005's Brokeback Mountain are in talks with Fox television to develop a drama for the network.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Larry McMurty and Diana Ossana will write and executive-produce the untitled drama. Currently the writing team is developing a show for ABC called Sheriff Luke. They are also adapting McMurty's novel Boone's Lick for a feature film that will star Tom Hanks.

McMurty and Ossana are also wrapping a six-hour miniseries for CBS that stars Steve Zahn, Karl Urban, Val Kilmer, and Rachel Griffiths. (The Advocate)
