Milo Ventimiglia joins L.A. Noir
Based on John Buntin's book L.A. Noir: The Struggle For The Soul Of America's Most Seductive City, the show tells the true story of a decades-long conflict between the LAPD, under the determined leadership of Police Chief William Parker, and ruthless criminal elements led by mobster Mickey Cohen, a one-time boxer who rose to the top of LA's criminal world.
The actor will play Ned Stax, a former marine who served with Joe Teague during WWII, now a budding lawyer groomed to be a master "fixer" for the mob. The Walking Dead's Jon Bernthal is also being looked at for a role.
This project is still in development.

awesome awesome. what network???? if this is on network tv it'll be dead in the water. AMC at a minimum. or FX. HBO or showtime would probably take it too far and focus more on gratuitous fluff (sex, death, grotesque bodies, etc.).
