"Crash" Coming to TV?

Paul Haggis' successful new film, "Crash" (already having made $50 million in about two months of release), maybe be coming to television, where the first-time director made his name writing. The Hollywood Reporter is reporting today, via Reuters, that FX is developing a show based on the film, hoping to lure many of the same actors who appear in the film:

Don Cheadle, one of the stars of the gritty drama about race relations in post-Sept. 11 Los Angeles, is likely to appear in and direct several episodes of the project if it goes into series. Sources said talks are under way with all other members of the cast, including Sandra Bullock, Matt Dillon, Brendan Fraser and rapper Ludacris, to reprise their roles from the film.
