The Detroit News reports that GM North America President Mark Reuss spoke about MTV's plans for the show at an industry breakfast Tuesday, where Reuss said that the GM has been working with cable's foremost TV station for all things teen pop culture for a few years now.

"Our friends at MTV have been on the ground talking to young people making a difference in Detroit, and we're going to do an upcoming episode of MTV's series 'True Life: Detroit Rising,'" The News quotes as Reuss saying. "This is the kind of coverage that we want."

A casting call for the show was sent out last summer, and was posted on several local blogs. Here is what was put up on 313 Detroit blog:
