CBS All-Access has already had initial success with Star Trek Discovery (which is driving huge subscription numbers and has been renewed for a second season) and is adding new original content to the service including The Good Wife spinoff series The Good Fight and others. No additional details have been given since Moonves’ initial announcement so there is no info on whether The Twilight Zone is only in development or if its gotten a series order.
