“It would be impossible to quantify Adam’s influence and importance to the success of ‘The Voice,’” NBC Entertainment president, alternative and late night programming Paul Telegdy said of the deal. “Given those enormous contributions, we’re very anxious to work with him and Jordan to see what future shows they develop that can find a home here at NBC.”

Levine's deal with the network follows a similar deal for his "Voice" cohort Cee Lo Green, who signed a first-look deal with NBC in September to develop, produce and possibly star in scripted and unscripted projects. The first potential project from that agreement is a comedy loosely based on Green's life, which he would star in.
