CSI veterans Jerry Bruckheimer and Danny Cannon are developing a pilot for their adaptation of the British series, The Eleventh Hour.

The pair will stick close to the original show’s format, which told the story of a government scientist and his female bodyguard who travel the country investigating scientific phenomenon.

Though only a pilot has been ordered so far, CBS is reportedly very committed to the project and will likely make a full 13-episode order.

The company has already picked up another Bruckheimer project this season, a show about freelance treasure hunters.

CSI: Crime Scene Investigation premieres tonight in its eighth season.
