Tim Minear Is A Miracle Man For ABC

Former Angel producer Tim Minear and Emmy winner Todd Holland have teamed for Miracle Man, a supernatural drama project that sparked a bidding war between ABC and Fox and landed at ABC with a put pilot commitment, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Miracle, from 20th Century Fox TV, where Minear and Holland are based with overall deals, centers on a disgraced former televangelist, a man of no faith, who finds that God is using him to perform real miracles and change lives, starting with his own.

Miracle was developed by Minear and Holland, who worked together on Fox’s critically praised drama Wonderfalls. Minear is writing the script, with Holland set to direct. Both are executive-producing. Miracle brings Minear back to ABC, where he landed his first full-time series gig on Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. Minear most recently created and executive-produced Fox’s drama Drive and also worked on such series as Fox’s The Inside and Firefly. Holland won three directing Emmys, two for Fox’s Malcolm in the Middle and one for HBO’s The Larry Sanders Show.
