UNIVERSAL CITY: NBC has entered into a first-look production deal with America’s Got Talent host Nick Cannon and his NCredible Entertainment banner.

Cannon and his business partner Michael Goldman are the principals of NCredible, which will develop a range of scripted and unscripted programming for the network. Cannon is also set to return as host of the NBC reality competition America’s Got Talent next summer.
