The 1980 hit film "Urban Cowboy", starring John Travolta and Debra Winger, will get a TV remake by FOX.
The network has tapped writer-director Craig Brewer to work on the pilot, reported Variety.
Brewer is also set to executive produce the series for Paramount TV and 20th Century Fox TV.
Chris Levinson will serve as showrunner and executive producer, if the network moves forward with the project.
Robert Evans, who produced the original film, is also on board as executive producer along with HBO alum Sue Naegle, while James Sikura will co-executive produce the series.
The movie centres on the love-hate relationship between Buford Uan "Bud" Davis (Travolta) and Sissy (Winger) with the gritty backdrop of rodeos, oil refineries, line dancing clubs and other aspects of modern-day Texas.
