Mark Harmon is developing a young William Shakespeare series for The CW.
“Shakespeare’s Sisters” continues the “N.C.I.S” star’s transition into producing, following “N.C.I.S : New Orleans” and the time-travel musical “Joey Dakota” in 2012.
The Hollywood Reporter describes the series as ” a tale of black magic, romance and revenge, the drama is set in 1590s London and chronicles a young Will Shakespeare’s rise to prominence as he finds himself caught in a deadly conflict among three witches and the most powerful woman in the world, Queen Elizabeth.”
The series, said to be a mix of “Shakespeare in Love” and “Game of Thrones”, will be penned by Scott Sullivan (“King & Maxwell”).
