M. Night Shyamalan is trying out the TV game.
Cable network Syfy has given a pilot commitment to a project from Shyamalan, who's best known for big-screen efforts such as The Sixth Sense, The Village and The Last Airbender.
The project, titled Proof, will centre on the son of a tech magnate who offers a reward for anyone who can provide proof of an afterlife, after his parents die in a tragic accident.
Shyamalan will direct the project, as well as co-write and serve as one of its executive producers.
