TV Time

Film star Samuel L. Jackson is turning into a TV man.

He’s signed a ‘first-look deal’ with CBS to develop and exec produce projects for the smallscreen.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$!

According to an industry report, there’s no acting component, but there’s always a chance Jackson may lend his face in some fashion to whatever project he cooks up.

“He’s an incredibly versatile person,” said CBS Paramount Network TV president David Stapf. “There’s no limit to what he’s interested in. He will attract other really interesting artists and writers.”

Stapf said he was particularly interested in making the deal after learning Jackson is a passionate TV fan.

Congrats!

But, pretty PLEASE…NO reality projects!!!
