LOS ANGELES, Jan. 8 (UPI) -- "Project Greenlight," the popular HBO series about filmmaking, is moving to cable's Bravo network for its third season.
"This glimpse into the creative process of filmmaking is a perfect fit for our brand, and we're thrilled with the prospect of providing 'Project Greenlight' the kind of elevated platform it deserves on Bravo," said Jeff Gaspin, Bravo president.
Set to return to the airwaves in 2005, "Project Greenlight" will once again run a contest for first-time writers and directors, with the show chronicling the making of the Miramax-funded winning entry, Zap2it.com reported Wednesday.
Producer Chris Moore, with partners Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, will choose the winning project.
The third season of "Project Greenlight" calls for a horror or thriller script.
HBO opted not to renew the show because executives thought Moore would no longer be involved with the show. Moore is returning for the third season, however, he will not be as active in the day-to-day production as he had been in the first two years of the show.
