Aaron Sorkin’s HBO cable news project is a go: The Social Network and West Wing writer’s behind-the-scenes drama about a fictional cable news network just earned a series order at the network.

The series centers on a cable news anchor (Jeff Daniels), his new executive producer (Emily Mortimer), his newsroom staff (Alison Pill, John Gallagher, Jr., Olivia Munn, Dev Patel, Thomas Sadoski) and their boss (Sam Waterston). The logline: “Together they set out on a patriotic and quixotic mission to do the news well in the face of corporate and commercial obstacles and their own personal entanglements.”

The project is officially untitled but has been working under the name More as the Story Develops but that will change.
