Monica Raymund (Chicago Fire) is set to star in Starz's upcoming opioid epidemic drama, P-Town per Deadline.
The project hails from Rebecca Cutter (Gotham), Gary Lennon (Power) and Jerry Bruckheimer TV and has been in development since last fall. Production for the show starts in March. Lennon will showrun the series whilst Cutter will pen the pilot.
P-Town centers on Jackie Quinones (Raymund), a lesbian National Marine Fisheries Services officer, happy to use her gun and badge to pick up tourist chicks in “P-Town” — the gay mecca of Provincetown, MA. But when she finds a body washed up on the beach — collateral damage of the opioid epidemic – Jackie’s life begins to circle the drain. As she faces her own addictive behaviors, she becomes increasingly obsessed with solving the murder. Jackie’s forced to confront the dark side of the idyllic summer spot – all the while putting herself and her sobriety in danger.
