CBS orders a pilot for Limitless TV adaptation

January 30, 2015 by Gary Collinson

Following on from the news that it has placed a pilot order for Rush Hour, CBS looks to be bringing another movie to the small screen, having picked up the pilot for an adaptation of the Bradley Cooper-headined thriller Limitless.

The pilot is being written by Craig Sweeny (Elementary, Medium), who is set to executive produce alongside Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci. Bradley Cooper and Todd Phillips are also on board as executive producers, while Neil Burger, director of the movie, will helm the pilot.

The hourlong drama will follow Brian Sinclair “as he discovers the power of the mysterious drug NZT and is coerced into using his newfound drug-enhanced abilities to solve weekly cases for the FBI.”
