NBC is looking for its own hit mystery/adventure drama set on an island with "Isla Du Sol," a drama from "Empire" creator/executive producer Tom Wheeler. The project is one of two dramas Wheeler is writing under a two-script deal with Warner Bros. Television. The other one-hour show, a contemporary take on the '80s adventure drama "The A-Team," is set up at CW. "Isla Du Sol," a co-production with Heyday Prods., centers on a young woman who, to fulfill her aunt's dying wish, travels to the mysterious Brazilian Isla Du Sol and discovers a past she never knew. Wheeler and "Harry Potter" producer David Heyman are executive producing the project, which has received a script commitment plus penalty from the network.
