USHER Currently in Development on Drama Series Based on His Music

Shortly after the Super Bowl, USHER is now bringing his music to whole new heights.

The eight-time Grammy winning artist has partnered with UCP, a division of Universal Studio Group, to develop a drama series about his music.

Executive producers are Selwyn Seyfu Hinds, Katie Zucker (Mad Massive Entertainment) and Kenny Meiselas (KMei Productions).

“My 30-year catalog has resonated with so many people no matter where they were in their lives,” Usher said in a statement. “I’m happy to be working with UCP to bring the music to life. I hope the series resonates with you the way my music continues to.”

Per the official logline, the drama is about “Black love in Atlanta and individuals looking to find a place to call home. The series will explore music, style, sex, romance and secrets that threaten to tear relationships apart.”

While the project is currently in the early stages, there could be other notable stars attached to the drama.

USHER has a notable past in films and TV Shows as per his experience, so many assume that he will also star in the project.

The singer recently wrapped his two-year: “My Way: The Las Vegas Residency” and begins his 24-city tour, “Past Present Future” on August 20 starting in Washington, DC. The tour will have additional stops in places like Atlanta, Miami, New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago. It is set to wrap on October 29, 2024.

Usher was the first artist to take the Super Bowl sage as an independent artist. A first in Super Bowl history, the hitmaker also dropped his ninth studio album titled “Coming Home” just two days before the big show.
