Former Lost co-star Yunjin Kim, now a lead on ABC’s summer series Mistresses, is expanding her relationship with the network. ABC has put in development an untitled hourlong project from ABC Studios and Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage’s studio-based Fake Empire based on the Korean drama series Nine: Nine Time Travels.
The format was brought to Fake Empire by Kim, who will serve as executive producer alongside Schwartz, Savage and Fake Empire’s President of TV Len Goldstein in what marks Fake Empire’s tenth broadcast sale this season. Written by Derek Simonds, the untitled drama, described as part thriller, part epic love story, centers on a man with the ability to travel 20 years back in time who, in trying to alter a murder which destroyed his family, sets off a chain of events that impact the woman he loves and threatens his own life. He embarks on an odyssey through time to make things right.

I should know better because sci-fi on main networks even fail creatively or ratings wise but I am a sucker for time travel stories, a real sucker.
ReplyDeleteA Back To The Future show, perhaps?
ReplyDeleteYup,just call me sucker,I'm in!
ReplyDeleteSounds interesting actually, I was kinda rolling my eyes towards the start of the article, but the synopsis got me hooked. Hope it pilots.
ReplyDeleteWell hopefully they'll pick a decent title, that is awful. But the show itself sounds really good.
ReplyDeleteThis could be insanely awesome or beyond horrible..
ReplyDeleteThe Korean Version was awesome so hopefully this is just as good.
ReplyDeleteI would kinda love this, actually.
ReplyDeleteSame here, I'll watch anything that includes it even though I often regret it...
