Hip-Hop Artist Turned Mayor Comedy Receives Pilot Production Commitment at ABC

Share on Reddit



In a highly competitive situation, ABC has given a cast-contingent pilot production commitment to a single-camera comedy about a hip-hop artist-turned-mayor from writer Jeremy Bronson (Late Night with Jimmy Fallon), Hamilton co-star Daveed Diggs, and Jamie Tarses, Scott Stuber & Dylan Clark’s Bluegrass FanFare. ABC Studios, where Bronson and the recently launched Bluegrass FanFare are under overall deals, is the studio.

Written and executive produced by Bronson, the untitled City Mayor Project centers on a struggling hip-hop artist who runs for mayor to promote his mixtape – and wins.

Diggs executive produces. The rapper-actor, who won a Tony for playing Marquis de Lafayette/Thomas Jefferson on Broadway smash Hamilton, is not attached to act in the project, which also is executive produced by Tarses, Stuber and Clark via Bluegrass Fanfare banner. James Griffiths, who directed the pilot for the ABC/ABC Studios comedy series Black-ish, is attached to direct and executive produce.
