USA Network has given the greenlight to the pilot “White Collar.”
The series stars Matthew Bomer and Tim DeKay as a con artist and an FBI agent, respectively, who have been playing cat-and-mouse for years.
Bronwen Hughes (USA’s “Burn Notice,” AMC’s “Breaking Bad”) will direct the pilot.
“USA is ramping up its production slate by adding a third pilot to its roster with ‘White Collar.’ The unique dynamic of Matthew Bomer and Tim DeKay adds two memorable characters to the roster that defines the USA brand,” Jackie de Crinis, USA’s executive VP of original programming, said in a statement.
“White Collar,” which comes from Fox Television Studios, is created and executive produced by Jeff Eastin.
