Scandal star Kerry Washington is now also on Patrol for ABC, developing a new drama about LAPD cops.
Chitra Sampath (Secrets and Lies) will pen the pilot and serve as a co-EP, while Washington will executive-produce alongside her producing partner Sharla Sumpter Bridgett, plus Michael London and Janice Williams.
Patrol marks the second project (following HBO’s Confirmation) to come from Washington’s Simpson Street production company.
Washington’s Scandal is due to premiere Season 6 in January 2017.
