Exclusive: After recently committing to Under Cover, Lionsgate has entered into a producing deal with actor-producer Cole Sprouse to develop a new unidentified project for the studio.
“I’m a huge fan of Joe Drake, Nathan Kahane, Erin Westerman, and the entire team at Lionsgate,” said Sprouse. “They’ve taken a front seat in the cultivation of my career, and I’m grateful for that confidence and belief.
