NEW YORK, Nov. 1 (UPI) -- Michael Shannon and Taylor Kitsch have landed the lead roles in Waco, a six-part event series to air on Spike TV.
Production on the program is to begin in the spring. It is based on the harrowing, Texas-set, true story of the 1993 FBI siege of the Waco compound belonging to the Branch Davidians, a religious sect, which resulted in a deadly shootout and fire.
