ABC has put in development Michael Bennett, a cop drama/family soap series based on the character in the bestselling books by author James Patterson.
Written by The Man In the Main Castle co-executive producer Rick Cleveland, the project centers on NYPD Detective Michael Bennett, who is something of a living legend. Brilliant, seasoned and highly dedicated, he is a master homicide investigator, able to crack the city’s toughest cases without breaking a sweat. At home, it’s a different story. Following the death of his beloved wife years earlier, Bennett became a single father to their diverse brood of not one, not two, but 6 adopted children. He is a well-meaning and devoted dad, but raising that many kids on his own is a struggle, to say the least, and balancing his personal and professional lives is always an epic challenge.Cleveland
