Outside of his music and television career, Jamie Foxx is hoping to venture into creating his own television shows. Last month, FOX revealed they had picked up Foxx' sketch comedy show. Now, barely one month later, NBC is also in business with Jamie Foxx.

The series is called "Tommy's Little Girl" and it is about an attorney/assassin who is out for revenge. She was the daughter of a mob boss, who was murdered along with the rest of her family. She is in a position of power and she uses it to strike back.

Jamie Foxx has always had interest in multiple topics and he is glad his comedy show and his drama have been picked up. Foxx believes "Tommy's Little Girl" will be a hit because a show with this concept has never been done before. He has been innovative throughout his career.

Despite the show being picked up by a network, there are not any actors currently signed to a contract with the series. A trailer for the show was filmed in July, but the actors did not sign contracts because no one expected the show to actually be picked up. Now that the program has been picked up, both Jamie Foxx and the NBC network have been on the phone with the actors from the trailer.
