Denzel eyes foray into small screen

Denzel Washington is reportedly planning a foray to television.

Los Angeles: Small is big for Oscar winner Denzel Washington, who is reportedly planning a foray to television. The Hollywood superstar is reportedly planning to become the executive producer of cop-drama `Billy Stiles`, which has been penned by Virgil Williams, the writer of hit dramas like `24` and `ER` to his credit.

Williams, who is likely to executive produce the series alongside Washington and others, is reportedly in talks with Fox for distribution, Hollywood Reporter said. An ensemble drama, "Billy Stiles" centres around the life of a genius gang member-turned-cop. The drama is based on a short story by Williams. `The Training Day` actor started his acting career with NBC series "St Elsewhere" in the 1980s before moving on to silver screen. Bureau Report
