AMC Orders 'Low Winter Sun' to Series

AMC on Friday gave a 10-episode series order to new drama Low Winter Sun.

From Endemol Studios and AMC Studio, Low Winter Sun is about the murder of a cop by a fellow Detroit
detective, who is then pulled into the underworld of the city. The series is
based on the 2006 two-part British miniseries of the same name and stars Mark
Strong and Lennie James.

Chris Mundy (Criminal
Minds, Cold Case
) will serve as writer, executive producer and showrunner
of the series.

AMC's pilot the Untitled
LaGravenese & Goldwyn Project
remains in consideration for a potential
series pick-up in 2013.
