J.J. Abrams wants to take a hands-on approach to Undercovers, his Warner Bros. pilot at NBC.
In addition to executive producing the project, Abrams is in talks to direct the opening episode.
Schedule permitting, Abrams will make Undercovers the first TV pilot he has directed since 2004’s Lost opener. ABC’s two-part Lost opening often is considered one of the best-directed pilots of all time and helped launch Abrams’ career into helming such theatrical films as Mission: Impossible 3 and Star Trek.
