NBC has put in development an untitled cryonics drama from writer David Slack, Drop Dead Diva creator Josh Berman and Sony TV. Phillip Noyce (The Resident) is set to direct and executive produce.
Written by Slack, the Untitled David Slack Projects centers around an enigmatic billionaire who has gathered more than 250 people who have attempted to cheat death by having their bodies frozen in hopes that a future breakthrough would someday allow them to be brought back to life. However, as these people from different moments in time wake up, they soon realize you can’t cheat death without paying a price.
Slack executive produces with Berman and Chris King via Berman’s Osprey Prods., and Noyce. Sony Pictures TV, where Berman is under an overall deal, is the studio.
Slack was an executive producer on the first two seasons of MacGyver. He created drama Apb which aired for one season on Fox.
