The network is finalizing a deal with Brad Grey Television for a project tentatively titled “The Priest,”<\/em> which is based on an idea by Sylvester Stallone.<\/p>\n

“The Priest”<\/em> centers on a nonconformist priest in a big city, who helps both homeless and rich people with their problems, while struggling with personal problems of his own, including fidelity. The project is expected to get a premium script deal from CBS.<\/p>\n

Brad Grey is in conversations with writer Cynthia Cidre (“The Mambo Kings”) to come on board and co-create the show with Stallone. Stallone will executive produce the project, and Jimmy Veres, who runs the television division of the actor’s Sylvester Stallone Co., will produce.<\/p>\n

Stallone has been very active in television lately. He recently sold a NASCAR-themed pitch to NBC.<\/p>\n

Stallone, who most recently co-starred in “Driven,” and his company are repped by ICM and Brillstein-Grey. Cidre is repped by WMA.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
