Fox Lands Steven Spielberg's Minority Report

Minority Report, the hot drama project from Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Television and Godzilla writer Max Borenstein, has landed at Fox with a big put pilot commitment. The series, based on the 2002 movie directed by Spielberg, hails from 20th Century Fox TV and Paramount TV, whose feature siblings produced the Tom Cruise-starring film. It was bought pre-emptively by Fox, which I hear offered a penalty close to $1 million to take the property off the market.
The series is envisioned as a sequel to the movie. It is set 10 years after the end of Precrime in DC. One of the three Precogs struggles to lead a “normal” human life, but remains haunted by visions the future, when he meets a detective haunted by her past who just may help him find a purpose to his gift.

I wonder how will it go for this one. In the past, the Spielberg show for TV, Terra Nova (in case anyone remembers it, it had something to do with dinosaurs) went extinct after one season.
And currently Extant is not doing great, I like the show, and I wonder if it will see a second season.

Terra Nova was cancelled because of production costs, it was a great show.

I´m into Spielberg, personally I´d like to see Extant come back for a second season.
Terra Nova faced cost-benefit issues.

The show cost around £100 million to make for just 13 episodes, making it the most expensive TV series in broadcasting history"

Terra Nova became as extinct as the dinosaurs that wandered on the show.

Sadly so, I always love to watch those huge lizards in a good sci-fi show or movie.
