LL Cool J is set to star and produce in a TV police drama.
The rapper has worked with CSI creator and writer Anthony Suiker on the the project, which will be called 'The Man'.
As previously reported by NME.COM, the show is part of a seven-figure deal Cool J signed with the US television network CBS.
The plot of ’The Man’ revolves around the double life of Cool J’s character, a smooth talking undercover hustler in Los Angeles.

His three adopted children all come from troubled backgrounds. One is reovering drug addict, another is a former victim of abuse who has an aggression problem and the third is a former prostitute who is now at college, reports Allhiphop.com.
