n late 2018, NBC gave a script commitment to a crime drama from author Patricia Cornwell, producer Matt Tolmach and Sony Pictures TV, called “Red Stick,” which—as its name suggests—is set in Baton Rouge. Though the series is only in the early development stages, with no decision yet as to where it will be produced, or if it will even be aired, local film industry leaders are excited by the possibility of having Baton Rouge as the show’s backdrop.


Seems like a no brainer, real life crime scenes and murder for easy filming and less staging cost?

Yeah they will need 3 crews to keep up with the shooting. They could wrap filming an entire season in 2 days

Who will NBC cast to play Gravy? Craig Robinson, Keenan Thompson, or Anthony Anderson? I’m guessing Keenan

ETA: Mila Jovovich to play Helmet Head



Lindsay Lohan as Kibbles

Maybe they will take "artistic liberties" and idealized Baton Rouge will have a loop.
