Netflix has ordered a series set in Las Vegas from three people who know the territory well: Casino director Martin Scorsese and Ocean’s Thirteen writers and Billions co-creators Brian Koppelman and David Levien.
The streamer has given an eight-episode order to the drama, which will center on the president of a hot Las Vegas hotel/casino and the moves he makes to secure and expand his position in the city. Koppelman and Levien are writing the currently untitled show and will serve as showrunners.
The pair will executive produce with Scorsese and his Sikelia Productions, Julie Yorn and Rick Yorn of Expanded Media, Paul Schiff and Beth Schacter.
