David O. Russell has co-written a 13-part series for the ABC network about a private country club and will also act as executive producer.
The drama has already been scheduled for a serial without a pilot episode.
David O. Russell is in contention for best director and best original screenplay at the Academy Awards, which take place in Los Angeles on March 2.
Last year, he scored nominations for best director and adapted screenplay for Silver Linings Playbook.
In 2011, The Fighter gained David O. Russell nods for best picture and director.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Russell co-wrote the story for the new TV series with Erin Brockovich screenwriter Susannah Grant. Erin Brockovich won Julia Roberts a best actress Oscar in 2001.
The magazine also reported that David O. Russell was previously attached to a television drama which did not air.
ABC has yet to announce casting and a broadcast date for the drama, described as telling the lives of both the staff and members of the country club.
