Zayn Malik to Develop 'Boys' TV Show Inspired by One Direction
(UPDATE, 9/7 at 11 a.m.): According to Variety, the speculations surrounding Zayn Malik's TV show are now confirmed. Helmed by NBC, the scripted series will be called Boys. The singer is working on the project with Law & Order creator Dick Wolf, his wife Noelle and Universal Television. Sherri Cooper Landsman and Jennifer Levin, co-creators of the CW’s Beauty and the Beast, are behind the script.
“We were intrigued by the synergistic potential that Zayn brings to the project. Boys will be a show that’s totally integrated on broadcast and digital platforms, Noelle Wolf said. "Casting and original music will be major components, giving the show promotional potential on multiple levels."
The series will follow a boy band as they go through the waves of huge success, similar to Zayn's experience in One Direction before he left the group. Simon Cowell, his former label boss, commented on the news. "I think he should have come to me with it, " he said. "Nothing surprises me anymore."
