The movie which is based on Belfort's memoir of the same name stars Leonardo DiCaprio in the lead role, reported Ace Showbiz.
The show would be about helping others who have hit rock bottom.
Electus CEO Chris Grant, who is running the studio behind series as 'Fashion Star' and 'Mob Wives', was keen on meeting Belfort after reading his 2007 memoir, 'The Wolf of Wall Street'.
In the book, Belfort described how he scammed investors out of USD 110 million throughout the 1990s and led a hard-partying lifestyle including serious drug takings.
