On Monday, CBS scored one of the biggest ‘gets’ in pilot season. “Lost” alum Josh Holloway has signed on to star in the network’s potential new drama “Intelligence.”
The pilot is centered at U.S. Cyber Command and focuses on a unit that has been created around one agent with a very special gift: a microchip has been implanted in his brain that allows him to access the entire electromagnetic spectrum. Like many of CBS’s successful shows, the drama will have a procedural element.
Holloway will play Gabriel Black, a former Navy SEAL and dedicated intelligence officer. Michael Seitzman wrote the script for the pilot, which is based on an unpublished book “Dissident” by John Dixon. David Semel will direct the pilot.
Deadline listed Holloway as one of the most sought after actors this pilot season. In addition to “Lost,” the actor has appeared in “Community,” “NCIS” and “CSI.”
