‘Monarch’ is the only new drama with a scheduled air date
Monarch stars Susan Sarandon, Trace Adkins, and Anna Friel and will premiere behind an NFL game on Sunday, Sept. 11. It’s the only new series that has a scheduled air date at this point.
As Deadline reported, Monarch is a “Texas-sized, multi-generational musical drama about America’s first family of country music.” The series follows the Romans, a family headed by the “insanely talented, but tough as nails Queen of Country Music Dottie Cantrell Roman” (Sarandon).
Adkins plays her beloved husband, “Texas Truthteller” Albie Roman. The logline continues: “Dottie and Albie have created a country music dynasty. But even though the Roman name is synonymous with authenticity, the very foundation of their success is a lie. And when their reign as country royalty is put in jeopardy, heir to the crown Nicolette ‘Nicky’ Roman (Friel) will stop at nothing to protect her family’s legacy while ensuring her own quest for stardom.”
New shows coming to Fox that don’t have a release date yet
Monarch isn’t the only new series coming to Fox this fall. The network will also bring viewers two other dramas, Alert and Accused. Alert is a police procedural from The Blacklist showrunner John Eisendrath and Jamie Foxx. Accused is “based on the BBC’s BAFTA-winning British crime anthology” (via Fox).
On top of that, Fox will debut an all-new animated comedy series Grimsburg starring Jon Hamm, the executive producer on the project. Dan Harmon’s Krapopolis is another animated series coming to Fox this fall.
Finally, Fox will add Gordon Ramsay‘s Food Stars, a reality competition series starring the award-winning chef, to their fall lineup. Stay tuned to Showbiz Cheat Sheet for updates regarding release dates for these Fox shows.
