The 313 - Tika Sumpter to Star in Detroit Mayor Drama in Development at CBS

Share on Reddit



Southside with You and The Haves and the Have Nots star Tika Sumpter is set to topline and co-executive produce The 313, a CBS drama project from writer Tracy McMillan (Satisfaction, Mad Men) and producer Michael London. This marks the first broadcast sale for London under the first-look deal he and his production company, Groundswell Productions, entered with CBS TV Studios in June.

In The 313 (which is Detroit’s area code), when a sex scandal brings down the current administration, a 29-year-old female City Council President (Sumpter) suddenly becomes the Mayor of Detroit and has to contend with all the staggering obstacles the job brings.

McMillan is writing the script and will executive produce alongside London and Sumpter’s manager, Emily Gerson Saines of Brookside Artist Management, for CBS TV Studios. The project was brought to Groundswell by director of development Hilary Zaitz Michael.
