VIDEO : Showtime Picks Up New Show From Matt Damon, Ben Affleck

On Thursday it was announced that Matt Damon and Ben Affleck's Pearl Street Films production company has landed a pilot order at Showtime for an upcoming drama called 'City on a Hill'. The show is reportedly a fictional account of the real life 'Boston Miracle', a police operation that helped calm streets in the Massachusetts city in the early 1990s. Pearl Street's Jennifer Todd, who will executive produce the show alongside director James Mangold, said in a statement, "City on a Hill is a gritty thriller about severe corruption and gangs, the type of series that takes you back and centers around the crime-riddled streets of Boston in the early '90s."
