Ed Gonzalez is coming home to The CW…
Warner Bros Television and producer Greg Berlanti are developing the drama project Casa, which was co-penned by the Mexican American writer, for the network.
Written by Gonzalez and Jeremy Haft, the series will touch on the hot-button issue of immigration.
Casa centers on six siblings in a Hispanic family who have to band together to survive when their parents get unjustly deported.
Writing partners Gonzalez and Haft got a break when they were selected as the 2014 Fox Writers Intensive Fellows, leading to a script development deal with Fox Broadcasting Co and 20th Century Fox Television and a staffing job on the first season of the hit Fox drama Empire.
The CW has scored high marks for its depiction of illegal immigration and its toll on families in dramedy Jane the Virgin.
Gonzalez & Haft recently wrote the feature film All Eyez On Me, a biopic directed by Benny Boom about Tupac Shakur for Morgan Creek Productions.
