Courtney B. Vance is returning to FX.
The Emmy-winning actor is set to star and exec produce a crime drama called Heist 88 for the cable network. The drama, which is in development, will serve as a reunion for the People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story star with director and exec producer Anthony Hemingway.
Set in 1988, Heist 88 tells the true story of arch-criminal and master manipulator Armand Moore (Vance) who persuaded four young, African-American employees of First National Bank of Chicago to steal $70 million via a sophisticated take down of the banking wire system.
Dwayne Johnson-Cochran (My Tribe Is Lost, Angel Street) will pen the script and exec produce alongside Vance, Pam Veasey (CSI: NY, In Living Color, The District) and Hemingway Taylor Productions' Hemingway and Mark Taylor.
