Exclusive: BET+ has put in development Cayne, a drama based on Ian K. Smith’s Ashe Cayne novel The Unspoken, from Rosewood screenwriter Gregory Poirier and Michael Strahan and Constance Schwartz-Morini’s Smac Entertainment.
Written by Poirier, based on the novel, Cayne tells the story of former Chicago detective and current private eye Ashe Cayne who is desperate for redemption. After refusing to participate in a police department cover-up involving the death of a young black man, Cayne is pushed out of the force. But he won’t sit quietly on the sidelines: with his intricate knowledge of Chicago, he will fight for justice for the people of the city he loves… rich and poor, the powerful and the powerless… against criminals, the gangs that rule the streets, crooked cops, and the political machine that runs city hall… even if it means putting himself in jeopardy.
Poirier will executive produce...
