"Angel"'s Greenwalt Runs "Moonlight"

**MickBeth** · 06-01-2007, 05:08 AM

David Greenwalt , co-creator/executive producer of the vampire drama Angel, has been tapped to serve as executive producer/show runner on CBS' new drama series Moonlight, which has a similar theme, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Moonlight, from Warner Brothers TV and Silver Pictures TV, centers on a private investigator (Alex O'Loughlin) who is a vampire. In his eternal life, he is joined by his former bride (Amber Valletta), a seductive vampire who bit him 60 years ago, as well as a deceitful ally (Rade Serbedzija), who also is undead.

The PI's life is turned upside down when he falls for a beautiful mortal woman. In the presentation, Shannon Lucio played the part, which is now being recast.

Greenwalt will serve as an executive producer alongside Joel Silver; the project's writers, Ron Koslow and Trevor Munson; director Rod Holcomb; and Gerard Bocaccio.

Greenwalt previously served as show runner on NBC's Kidnapped, UPN's Jake 2.0 and ABC's Miracles. In addition to co-creating Angel with Joss Whedon, Greenwalt was a writer-producer on Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer. He also worked as a consulting producer for SCI FI Channel's original series Eureka.

Could be decent late night viewing. Might get shot down because its too similar to Angel, though.
