SHOWTIME has given a series commitment and opened a writers room for the new spy thriller INTELLIGENCE, a real-world scripted drama series from Academy Award-winning filmmaker Mark Boal (The Hurt Locker, Zero Dark Thirty). Boal will write, direct and executive produce, marking the filmmaker's first foray into television. The series, based on real stories from around the world, will explore the secret inner workings of power – how espionage intersects with politics, finance, media and Silicon Valley. The first season will dramatize the behind-the-scenes history leading up to the 2016 U.S. election, with each subsequent season looking at a major world event through the lens of covert operations.
Internationally renowned, multi-platinum recording artist Josh Groban is gearing up for the February 5th release of his new album All That Echoes with a series of high-profile live events and television appearances over the coming weeks.
