Abrams will team up with Mexican director Alfonso Cuarón for NBC. The director of Children of Men has written and will direct Believe, the story of a young girl with special powers who is protected by an ex-con.

Abrams will then work with J.H. Wyman, the former Fringe showrunner, screenwriter and producer. Their new project, which is yet to be named, will be set in a near future in which Los Angeles police officers work with a humanoid.

Fringe ended in the United States on January 18 but two of J.J. Abrams' creations are still running on American TV - Person of Interest on CBS and Revolution on NBC. His TV credits could get longer thanks to these two new projects in fall 2013.
