Mix Tape - Romantic Musical Drama from Quantico Creator in Development at FOX + Ghost Drama at AMC
Quantico creator Josh Safran, who stepped down from the ABC drama to focus on development, has set up two new projects.
Mix Tape is a romantic musical drama that looks at a disparate group of interconnected people in contemporary Los Angeles through the lens of the music that defines who they are. It's described as a look at what would happen if Damien Chazelle made This Is Us or Magnolia. Safran will pen the script for the drama, which landed at Fox with a penalty attached, and exec produce alongside Megan Ellison and Sue Naegle. The project is a co-production between 20th Century Fox Television and Annapurna Television.
The AMC project, meanwhile, is in the vein of The Sixth Sense and The Others. It's considered a new take on a ghost story that looks at a lifelong haunting of a woman and the man who loves her. Safran will write and exec produce.
