ABC Developing Dive, a New Orleans Police‑Diver Crime Drama

The attachment of Steven Kane and Seven Bucks Productions signals franchise ambitions should ABC advance the project.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report that ABC is developing Dive as an early‑stage series with no cast, episode order, or premiere date announced.
  • The show is described as centering on an elite team of police divers and investigators who solve crimes tied to New Orleans waterways.
  • Steven Kane is credited as the creator and lead showrunner while 20th Television and Dwayne Johnson and Dany Garcia’s Seven Bucks Productions are listed as production partners with Kristina Sorenson as an executive producer.
  • Kane has publicly suggested the property could expand into a broader franchise if the initial series proves successful, a point he raised at a recent television event.
  • The report emphasizes the project is early and sourced to entertainment coverage, but Kane and Seven Bucks’ TV track records — including Kane’s work on Halo and Jack Ryan and Seven Bucks’ credits like Ballers and Young Rock — give the series a high‑profile creative pedigree.
