The Crossing - War Torn Time-Travel Drama in Development ABC / Still At Large Receives Put Pilot at CBS

Drama writer-producing duo Dan Dworkin and Jay Beattie (Criminal Minds) have sold two hourlong projects. They have teamed with Chris Brancato for U.S. Marshals drama Still At Large, which has received a put pilot commitment at CBS, and also have set up time-travel drama The Crossing at ABC. Both projects hail from ABC Studios where Dworkin & Beattie as well as Brancato have overall deals.

Written/executive produced by Brancato, Dworkin and Beattie, in Still At Large, after evading the largest manhunt in U.S. history and becoming infamous for a murder he didn’t commit, a man is recruited by the U.S. Marshals to track other fugitives, where he’s paired with a female partner who questions whether he really is innocent.

Written/executive produced by Dworkin and Beattie and executive produced by former Disney executive-turned-producer Jason Reed, The Crossing (working title) revolves around refugees from a war torn country who start showing up seeking asylum in a U.S. city… but the country these people are from is America, and the war they are fleeing is 500 years in the future.
