Back in August it was revealed that Antoine Fuqua and producer Jerry Bruckheimer were in development on a TV adaptation of the 2001 crime thriller Training Day, and now it has been announced that CBS has officially placed a pilot order for the project.
The pilot has been written by former LAPD officer Will Beall (Gangster Squad) will take place 15 years after the movie, and retain the same core concept of a rookie cop who finds himself partnered up with a correct veteran, although there has been talk that the ethnicity of the two characters will be switched around.
The two stars of the movie, Denzel Washington and Ethan Hawke, are also set to reunite with Fuqua for his upcoming big screen remake of The Magnificent Seven, which is set for release this September.
