Geena Davis to Star in TNT Bounty Hunter Pilot

TNT has greenlit a new pilot that will star Geena Davis as an unconventional bounty hunter, the network said Thursday.

The as-yet-untitled project will be directed and executive-produced by Dean Devlin, whose series "Leverage" was canceled by the network. Devlin will also serve as the new project's showrunner, along with Amy Berg, who wrote the script with Scott Prendergrast.

Davis will also executive-produce, as will Prendergrast and others.

Inspired by the life story of San Francisco bounty hunter Mackenzie Green, the project will star Davis as "an unconventional bail bondswoman and bounty hunter whose eccentric personality and unusual tactics give her an advantage in a tough and unpredictable business."

Electric Entertainment, Ternion Productions and 3 Arts are producing the project.
