deadline.comEXCLUSIVE: MTV Entertainment Studios has closed a multi-year overall deal extension with Dave Erickson, writer, executive producer and showrunner on the studio’s Paramount+ series Mayor of Kingstown starring Jeremy Renner.
The drama, co-created/executive produced by Taylor Sheridan and Hugh Dillon, has opened a Season 4 writers room in anticipation of a renewal, sources said.
Like all series in the Sheridan universe, MTVE Studios produces Mayor Of Kingstown in partnership with 101 Studios. Under the new pact, Erickson will continue on Mayor Of Kingstown, which he joined at the start of Season 2, in addition to writing and executive producing new scripted series across the Paramount Global portfolio. (Erickson already is developing projects with 101 Studios.) He may also work on other existing MTVE Studios/101 Studios series from Taylor Sheridan, like Tulsa King.
Mayor of Kingstown is coming off a ratings milestone, making a debut on the Nielsen Top 10 Originals with the debut of Season 3.
