Universal Television has just purchased the rights to the Israeli-made show – owned by Israeli television broadcaster Keshet – about Russian-Israeli spies who must navigate their way through competing allegiances and consider the effects their decisions will have on their homelands and families.
According to The JC.com, the U.S. version of the show, scheduled to run on NBC, will be called M.I.C.E (Money, Ideology, Coercion and Ego) and will be written by Peter Berg, who wrote the pilot for the successful football-centered series Friday Night Lights.
Keshet also developed the highly successful drama, Homeland, which has since become a North American hit after being redeveloped for American audiences.
