WE tv's first original scripted drama,
The Divide, will debut with a special two-hour premiere on Wednesday, July 16th, at 9 p.m. ET/PT before moving to its regular 10 p.m. ET/PT timeslot beginning on Wednesday, July 23rd. The eight-episode series is written by the Academy Award and Emmy nominated Richard LaGravenese (
Behind the Candelabra), with Tony Goldwyn (
Scandal) directing the premiere episode. Co-created by LaGravenese and Goldwyn, the series is produced by AMC studios.
The Divide is a thought-provoking and suspenseful drama that explores the personal cost of morality, ambition, ethics, politics, and race in today's justice system through the eyes of Christine Rosa played by Marin Ireland (
Homeland), an impassioned caseworker with The Innocence Initiative, and Adam Page played by Damon Gupton (
The Newsroom), an equally passionate district attorney and political rising star.
