TNT has given the go-ahead for an action drama series called Leverage.

The deal for 13 episodes follows a pilot for the channel. It is about a group of criminals and hackers who seek to take revenge against those who misuse their power.

TNT programming chief Michael Wright said the show would be "fast-paced, smart and just great fun".

Stars will include Timothy Hutton and Beth Riesgraf and the show is expected to start airing this year.

It will be executive produced by Dean Devlin and John Rogers and is from Devlin's firm Electric Entertainment.
