Fox is the second network to announce its 2017-2018 primetime schedule. The network is getting in the Marvel business with THE GIFTED, a new X-MEN series directed by Bryan Singer and starring Stephen Moyer (TRUE BLOOD) and Amy Acker (PERSON OF INTEREST). You can also expect to see some other familiar faces on Fox next season, with THE GOOD WIFE’s Matt Czuchry and REVENGE’s Emily VanCamp appearing in the new drama THE RESIDENT and THE OFFICE alum Craig Robinson starring in GHOSTED.
In addition, a three-hour live television production of A CHRISTMAS STORY will air this December on Fox and a live version of RENT will air in 2018. Casting will begin for both of these productions soon.
