WE tv’s is getting in on the ever-expanding original scripted drama action with the announcement of its first foray into the arena — The Divide. Set to premiere this July, the eight-episode series is penned by Richard LaGravenese, and co-created by LaGravenese and Tony Goldwyn.
According to the announcement from WE tv, The Divide is “a thought-provoking and suspenseful drama that explores the personal cost of morality, ambition, ethics, politics, and race in today’s justice system through the eyes of Christine Rosa, an impassioned caseworker with The Innocence Initiative, and Adam Page, an equally passionate district attorney and political rising star.”
The series stars Marin Ireland as Christine Rosa, and Damon Gupton as Adam Page. Nia Long, Paul Schneider, Clarke Peters, and Joe Anderson round out the cast.
LaGravenese and Goldwyn also serve as executive producers along with showrunner John Tinker, and co-executive producer Andrew Sugarman.
