LaToya Morgan has signed a two-year overall deal with AMC, reports Deadline. She’ll work on existing series — AMC’s current slate includes titles such as “Better Call Saul,” “The Walking Dead,” and “Preacher” — as well as develop new ones.

Morgan recently served as a writer for the network’s period war drama “Turn: Washington’s Spies.” She’ll next head over to the staff of AMC’s “Into the Badlands,” a martial arts drama that will be entering its second season.

The NAACP Imagine Award nominee previously worked as a staff writer on Showtime’s “Shameless.” Deadline reports that “Morgan recently has landed several high-profile feature gigs. She was hired to adapt ‘The Two Minute Rule’ for Original Film and Story Mining & Supply. Morgan has original crime thriller ‘Carried By Six’ being produced by Barry Josephson, with Olaf de Fleur directing. She most recently closed a deal with The Firm to write a biopic of civil rights icon Angela Davis.”

Davis made headlines in 1970 when she became the third woman to appear on the FBI’s infamous 10 Most Wanted List for suspected involvement in a racially-charged hostage situation in a courtroom in Marin County, California. She fled before being captured, and the fugitive’s story received a great deal of attention, both in the U.S. and abroad. The professor and author was eventually tried before an all-white jury who deemed her not guilty.
