Actor Terrence Howard is working with Radical Media on developing a television show called "Pigs and Panthers," Daily Variety reports.

The drama, set in Los Angeles during the 1960s and 1970s, will be based on undercover LAPD detective Ronald Farwell, who infiltrated the Black Panthers.

Radical Media will produce the pilot with Howard’s production company, A Huge Quality Film, which is also developing the drama.
