NBC has committed to Manhunt, an anthology-style drama series from creators Zack Rice and Whit Brayton, director Gavin Hood and Anonymous Content, the company behind True Detective and The Knick.

Each season of Manhunt will focus on the mounting tension of an entire city on the hunt for a fugitive roaming the streets at large. It will examine the moment an American, or International City becomes a police state, a war zone or a ground zero and the ensuing bloodlust it inspires.
