USA gives life to 'Dead Zone'
By Nellie Andreeva
LOS ANGELES (The Hollywood Reporter) --- In its richest series deal to date, USA Network has given a 22-episode order to "The Dead Zone," a drama based on Stephen King's novel of the same name that is set to star Anthony Michael Hall.
The Lions Gate Television/Paramount International Television series was originally developed for UPN, which announced the show as a midseason replacement during its upfront presentation in May.
Sources said USA will pay close to $1 million per episode -- the highest license fee ever for the cable network. The fee is close to what UPN was to shell out for the drama, executive produced by Michael Piller, Shawn Piller and Lloyd Segan.
$1 mil per episode... wow.
