MOONLIGHT Names Johannessen as Showrunner

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Chip Johannessen has been named the new executive producer/showrunner of the upcoming CBS drama MOONLIGHT. Johannessen, whose credits include “Dark Angel”, “Empire” and “Millennium” was brought on board after original showrunner David Greenwalt left the production citing personal and health reasons.

MOONLIGHT, starring Alex O’Loughlin, is in the process of reshooting its pilot with new actors and a certain level of reinvention. I’m keeping my eye on this one for the Fall season.
