Despite being fired from
Grey's Anatomy and
blaming everyone but himself for his predicament, it looks like Isaiah Washington is landing firmly on his feet.
According to
USA Today, NBC
is set to announce that they've signed the actor to a development deal; under the deal, Washington will star in an action drama that he pitched the network, starting in the 2008-09 season. In the meantime, he will have a guest role on the network's upcoming remake of
The Bionic Woman, playing a mysterious figure that will either help or hurt the main character, Jamie Sommers. He's signed for at least five episodes.

According to the UK site
Digital Spy, Bryan Singer, director of the summer blockbuster
Superman Returns, has signed a development deal with ABC. In the reported seven-figure deal, Singer will develop three pilot scripts for the network; the network is gauaranteeing Singer that at least one of them will end up being produced with him as the showrunner.
This isn't Singer's first TV venture; he was involved as an executive producer and director for
House. Let's hope whatever pilot comes out of this deal is closer to the
House aesthetic (and maybe that of Singer's first hit feature,
The Usual Suspects) than the comic-book genre he's been involved with lately. We already have
Heroes and
Smallville; that's plenty for me.
