Hollywoodland director to helm pilot for FX

There's not a lot of information on this new drama pilot for FX, so I'll try to be as vague as possible. Allen Coulter, director of the film Hollywoodland, has signed on to direct a new untitled drama pilot for FX. The series, scripted by Todd A. Kessler (The Sopranos), Glenn Kessler and Daniel Zelman, is a legal thriller, and if they can make it unique considering that idea has already been done exactly twenty-seven gazilion times, then more power to 'em. Coulter's other TV directing credits include The X-Files, Millennium, and most recently, The Sopranos and Sex and the City. He's been involved with some inventive and cutting edge shows (excluding Sex and the City), and given FX's record so far of cutting edge programming like The Shield and Rescue Me, this combination may actually result in something worth tuning in to.
