As the executive producer of The CW’s new drama Nikita, Craig Silverstein wanted to make a female action show, but knew that if he was going to tell the story of Nikita (Maggie Q), it would have to be different from what fans already knew.
During an interview to promote the action series, Craig Silverstein talked about how this new Nikita story came to be, what makes the story so compelling and the importance of always surprising an audience. Check out what he had to say...

 Q: How exactly did this series come about? Were you a fan of the previous incarnations of Nikita and wanted to do another version of it, or did you want to do a female assassin show, and they decided to put the name on it for marketing purposes?
Craig: Yeah, Warner Bros. and I were trying to figure out something to do. They said, “We have Nikita,” and I said, “That’s good. I like it.” The CW was also actively looking to make a female action show. So, from there, it was about wanting to do it and just trying to figure out a way to make it fresh. - Full Interview.
