'Housewives' producers develop 'Boys Club'

The production team behind The Real Housewives of Orange County are working on an all-male counterpart series.

Evolution Media has teamed with Real Housewives of Atlanta casting head Princess Banton-Lofters, who will also serve as producer of the tentatively titled Boys Club: ATL, according to Broadcasting & Cable.

"We'd obviously admired from afar what Princess did with The Real Housewives of Atlanta, and when she approached us with this idea, it was a slam dunk," said Evolution president Douglas Ross.

"Men's lives are as dramatic and interesting as their female counterparts."

The male-centric project will be based and filmed in the Atlanta area. Evolution previously produced the first season of Fear Factor for NBC and Big Brother for CBS.

There is no word yet on casting, or if network Bravo will pick up the series.

Logo recently announced that it has an all-gay version of the Housewives franchise called Kept in the works.
