Agent Carter Showrunners Developing Disney Theme Park Mythology Series at ABC and More

Veteran showrunners Michele Fazekas and Tara Butters (Agent Carter) have ramped up development through their pod deal at ABC Studios. The duo’s Fazekas & Butters production company has sold two hourlong projects to ABC — one written by them with a Disney theme parks tie-in and one penned by filmmaker Nisha Ganatra. Additionally, the company has set up projects at Freeform and Amazon with writers Nick Towne and Heath Cordon and is developing a series based on Wesley Chu’s Tao science fiction book series.

Details about the untitled ABC drama written by Fazekas and Butters (aka Hyperion) are being kept under wraps but it is based on the Disney theme park mythology. The duo is executive producing with former Disney executive-turned-producer Jason Reed.

The untitled Nisha Ganatra dramedy, which she is writing, executive producing and set to direct, explores themes of identity, the immigrant experience and the search for love through a multi-generational Indian American family.

The Problem with Mel Purview, which is in development at Amazon, was written on spec by Nick Towne, who serves as co-executive producer. The darkly humorous contemporary noir starts with a kidnapping and a semi-absent father named Mel Purview who is sucked into the highly organized criminal underworld of modern Los Angeles as he is forced by kidnappers to lead a secretive double life.

The untitled Heath Cordon project, in development at Freeform, is written/co-executive produced by Corson. In it, fourteen years ago, the four Sage children stumbled into the magical world of Arcana. Now, reunited after the mysterious death of their father, the Sages must put aside their differences and come together as a family in order to confront an invasion of our world from Arcana, eager to make the siblings answer for the sins of the past.
