Dexter producer Clyde Phillips extends his relationship with Showtime.
Multiple outlets report that Phillips has signed an overall deal with Showtime and CBS Television Studios. Under the deal he will develop projects for both entities that can air on platforms within or outside the ViacomCBS umbrella.
“Securing the talents of a gifted writer/producer/showrunner like Clyde is a huge bonus for the Studio,” said CBS Television Studios president David Stapf in a statement. “There are few creators out there that have successfully crossed so many genres, and we’re fortunate to have him join our team. I’m looking forward to discovering where his fertile imagination goes next.”
“Clyde is a world-class showrunner and filmmaker who brings intelligence, depth, maturity and style to both drama and comedy series,” added Showtime president of entertainment Gary Levine. “Our many collaborations in the past have been deeply gratifying, and I am thrilled that we will be working together again.”
