Joe Otterson TV Reporter ABC has ordered a drama pilot from Drew Goddard based on the French series “HPI.” The news comes less than a week after it was reported that ABC Signature had acquired the English language adaptation rights to the series.

When they discover she has a knack for putting things in order because of her high intellectual potential she is brought on as a consultant to work with a by-the-book seasoned detective, and together they form an unusual and unstoppable team.” Goddard will write the pilot and executive produce under his Goddard Textiles banner.
Sarah Esberg of Goddard Textiles will also executive produce along with Pierre Laugier, Anthony Lancret, and Jean Nainchrik of Newen.
