breaking Bad And Better to call Saul Creator Gilligan wins has a new project in the works, and Apple TV + has given him a direct order for the series with a two-season commitment. The Untitled series is described as “a deep-rooted mixed genre drama” and is meant to act Rea Seehorn (Whitney, Vep, Better to call Saul).
Gilligan will serve as showrunner and executive producer through his High Bridge Productions. Former Sony Pictures TV president Jeff Frost, who oversaw the project before recently stepping down from his executive role, will also executive produce, along with Diane Mercer. Jenn Carroll is producing for High Bridge.
As Deadline reported last month, there was a lot of anticipation for Gilligan’s speech, with at least 8-9 networks and platforms lined up to hear him and read his script. There were multiple rounds of bidding for the project, which was reportedly looking for a serial order and budget close to $ 13.5 million – $ 15 million per episode, but with Gilligan at the helm, Apple knew how much what they were worth. looking to buy.
Gilligan said of the new series:
“After 15 years, I thought it was time to take a break from writing anti-heroes… and who is more heroic than the brilliant Rhea Seehorn? It’s been a long time since she had her show of her and I feel lucky to be able to work with her. And what a beautiful symmetry to find Zack Van Amburg, Jamie Erlicht and Chris Parnell! Jamie and Zack were the first two people they said yes to breaking Bad all those years gone by. They’ve built a great team at Apple and my wonderful longtime partners at Sony Pictures Television and I’m thrilled to be working with them. “
As compared to The twilight zone, the new series is said to be set in our world as it modifies it, bends reality and focuses on people and explores the human condition in an unexpected and surprising way. Inspiring but not a moral tale, the series should also carry the distinctive Gilligan tone that infuses drama with humor.
I am thrilled with this! What do you think of the idea?
