It's not confirmed, but it seems Charlie's Angels, the TV drama show is coming to film in Miami. The show, executive produced by actress Drew Barrymore, will get picked up, after spending more than a month in our city filming the ABC pilot.

The pilot is full of action and used our city as a backdrop, including Ocean Drive, Downtown Miami, and Wynwood, where they rented an empty warehouse and as a production home.

The show will star hardly famous actors Minka Kelly , Rachael Taylor and Annie Ilonzeh. Bosley will be played by Ramon Rodriguez who was just in the movie hit, Battle: Los Angeles. One plus for Rodriguez was his car on the show, a Maserati from The Collection. Nice perk!!!
