The Directors Guild of Canada (Ontario) ‘Hot List’ compilation of Ontario-based production information has been updated with a new CBS Studios show ‘Ivory Tower’ to begin Accounting & Art Department preproduction in March.
If true, we should probably see some casting news in the near future...
TBF, Ivory tower is not a bad title. If it reflects the show's approach to the academy, I'm for sticking with it.
I’m expecting some thriller aspects, not just the comedy that having Tawney Newsome joining the writers room might suggest.
This show was in development hell for quite a while, but it seems like they finally got a viable concept after the backdoor pilot episode in Discovery season three fell flat, and a new set of creators took over.
Gaia Violo (Co-EP), who is credited with writing the pilot that finally got greenlit, was the cocreator and a senior writer on Absentia. Also, Co-Showrunner Noga Landau was a senior writer on The Magicians when Henry Alonso Myers was showrunner. Landau transitioned Nancy Drew to a much more suspenseful (and successful) version when she took over running the show in season two.
