HBO is in development on a half-hour drama series that explores the gender transformation of a woman into a man.

"T" comes from married couple Anya Epstein and Dan Futterman, who have just signed with the pay cabler as showrunners for the third season of "In Treatment."

Epstein and Futterman had pitched "T" to HBO before the net came back to them to discuss their involvement with "In Treatment." They will write the pilot and serve as exec producers on "T." Ira Glass and Alissa Shipp also exec produce.
