Variety confirmed the news about the big move, noting that production was beginning.

Stephen stars in the project as Ted Black, a “charismatic force of nature who puts his own needs above others.

In the new series, his firm is at a crisis point, and in order to survive he must embrace a role he held in contempt his entire career. Ted is surrounded by a stellar group of characters who test their loyalties to both Ted and each other while they can’t help but mix their personal and professional lives. All of this is going on while events from years ago slowly unravel that led Ted to leave behind everything and everyone he loved.

The series does not have an official release date yet. We’ll update you as we learn more.
