Brad Pitt’s Transsexual Drama
The FX television network has given the go-ahead to the pilot episode of Ryan Murphy’s “4 oz.”
This drama is about the metamorphosis of a man who realizes he is a transsexual.
Murphy is the creator of the plastic-surgery TV show “Nip/Tuck,” and “4 oz.” is the first new show to be created by him since he signed a $15 million deal with FX’s parent company, News Corp.
Murphy co-created “4 oz.” with “Nip/Tuck” writer Brad Falchuk, and they wrote the pilot together. Murphy, who’ll direct the pilot, will exec produce the FX drama with Brad Pitt and Dede Gardner, with Pitt making his first journey into series TV.
Murphy will begin casting immediately the key role of a married man with two sons whose life takes a radical gender turn.
