HOLLYWOOD - In an attempt to beef up its action programming, Pearson Television has unveiled plans for a new series starring Italian model/actor Antonio Sabato Jr. “Lean Angle” will be centered on the world of professional motorcycle racing, with Sabato doing most of the riding himself.
The scenes will be shot throughout the world, according to The Hollywood Reporter, and will have the look and feel of the classic motor racing film “Grand Prix.”
Patrick Hasburgh has been named executive producer. His credits include “21 Jump Street” and “Sunset Heat” with George Clooney.
