Actor Rob Lowe is set to star in and executive produces crime drama "Wild Bill" for British broadcaster ITV.
In the six-part series, Lowe will play high-flying US cop Bill Hixon, who is appointed a chief of police in East Lincolnshire, a rural part of Eastern England.
"Wild Bill" is created by David Griffiths, Kyle Killen, and Dudi Appleton and Jim Keeble, and will be written by lead writers and showrunners Keeble and Appleton, reported Variety.
The story revolves around Hixon, who arrives in Boston, Lincolnshire, with his 14-year-old daughter Kelsey. He hopes they can flee their painful recent past. But this unfamiliar, unimpressed community will force Hixon to question everything about himself and leave him asking whether it's Boston that needs him, or he needs Boston?
"'Wild Bill' is larger than life character who's outrageously articulate, has nothing to lose and revels in being an American fish out of the water," Lowe said.
