James Corden to Develop Sci-Fi Drama at CBS

James Corden's production company, Fulwell 73, is developing a drama series at CBS, according to Variety.

In the series, titled "Embody," after a mission gone wrong renders her permanently blind, a special agent volunteers for an experimental government program that can temporarily transfer her consciousness into someone else's body, giving her the ability to see through their eyes as she infiltrates high-stakes situations and takes down criminals from within.

Chai Hecht will write and co-executive produce the series. Leo Pearlman and Jeff Grosvenor of Fulwell will executive produce. CBS Television Studios, where Fulwell is set up under an overall deal, will produce.

Fulwell currently produces "The Late late Show with James Corden" and the CBS sitcom "Happy Together." The company will also produce the upcoming CBS competition series "The World's Best," which Corden will host. Fulwell has a pilot production commitment at Showtime for the comedy "The Wrong Mans" starring Ben Schwartz.
