Michael Schneider Variety Editor at Large Fox Entertainment is developing a one-hour medical drama based on the Italian hit series “Doc — Nelle tue mani.” (Translation: “Doc — In your hands.”) The U.S.
adaptation, titled “Doc,” will come from writer Barbie Kligman (“Magnum P.I.”). Fox Entertainment and Sony Pictures Television are behind “Doc,” which will also be executive produced by Hank Steinberg (“Without a Trace”) and Erwin Stoff (“Julia”), who both will serve as non-writing producers.
Kligman will handle showrunner duties as writing executive producer. The show is being developed as part of Fox’s script-to-series process.
As the network will no longer shoot pilots, it instead develops several scripts before deciding whether to go forward with a series order.
