Starz is developing a series about organized crime and hoping it can do something similar to what "The Sopranos" did for HBO.
The show in question is "Underbelly," an Australian series that dramatized a real-life crime war in Melbourne and was a critical and popular hit there. According to Vulture, Starz has bought rights to the show but is looking to adapt stories from American crime families in telling its tale.
Incidentally, the CEO of Starz is Chris Albrecht, who ran HBO during the "Sopranos" era.
