TV: “Hung” Creators Raise The Dead In “Sleep No More”!
Showtime is developing a new series from “Hung” co-creators Dmitry Lipkin and Colette Burson, says Deadline.
Called “Sleep No More,” the Fox 21-produced supernatural thriller “tells the tale of a town where the dead keep returning to life.”
Lipkin and Burson were the creators of “The Riches” and co-creators of HBO’s now cancelled moonlighting male prostitute series “Hung.” The husband-and-wife team will serve as executive producers and writers. This is the first project from the duo in their recent two-year deal with Fox’s cable and reality TV division.
More as it comes in.
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
