Los Angeles - Superstar couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are expanding their partnership to the professional level.

Pitt, 43, and Jolie, 32, are teaming up for their first producing project, a drama series for premium cable TV channel HBO about the staff at an international aid organization, according to the Hollywood Reporter Monday.

The still untitled drama aims to show the behind-the-scenes workers who put their lives in danger to help others. The project reflects some of the main interests of Pitt and Jolie, who have both been active in promoting aid activities throughout the world.

The series is being written by Scott Burns, who co-wrote The Bourne Ultimatum and produced Al Gore's Oscar-winning documentary An Inconvenient Truth.
