Narcos creator Chris Brancato is developing a Peaky Blinders-style series about Irish gangs in New York for MGM+.

Brancato has revealed the project in the past few minutes at Series Mania, and it is under working title The Westies with the streamer.

The auteur, whose MGM+ show Hotel Cocaine is in competition in Lille, said he is working on the script and the series will be about “fearsome Irish gangs” during the period.

Brancato talked the Series Mania crowd through his upcoming projects and said he is also seeking a couple of shows similar to Beverly Hills, 90210.

He is also sketching out a second season of Hotel Cocaine, a Casablance-esque show about a Cuban exile, and general manager of a hotel, the glamorous epicenter of the Miami cocaine scene of late ‘70s and early ‘80s.
