True-crime love story The Resort, from Palm Springs writer Andy Siara and Mr. Robot creator Sam Esmail has been ordered at Peacock.
The streamer has handed the series, from UCP, an eight-part order.
The Resort explores love and the weird things we do in the name of it, encased in an elaborate true-crime conspiracy, with each season set in a unique picturesque vacation destination. The first season takes place at an all-inclusive resort along the Mayan Riviera, when a married couple on the brink of divorce inadvertently becomes embroiled in one of the Yucatan’s most bizarre, unsolved mysteries that, somehow, is part metaphysical detective story, part Indiana Jones-esque adventure, part coming-of-age romance.
