Greg Berlanti Nabs Series Order for Horror Drama ‘Stillwater’ at Amazon

Greg Berlanti is getting back into the writers room.

The mega-producer has three projects, at three different streamers, in various stages of development — including a series order for Stillwater, based on the horror comic of the same name, at Amazon’s Prime Video. Berlanti is also developing a high school mystery series at Hulu and a family drama at Max.

All three projects come from Warner Bros. TV, where Berlanti has a rich overall deal and has been his studio home for most of his career.

Stillwater and the Hulu project, Foster Dade, will also mark Berlanti’s first teleplay credits in several years. While the prolific producer has a “developed by” or creator credit on many of the shows his eponymous company has produced — including most of The CW’s Arrow-verse series — he hasn’t had a writing credit since the early days of You, which is now wrapping its run on Netflx.

Berlanti and Carly Wray (Watchmen, Mad Men) are adapting Skybound’s comic Stillwater. The show follows ex-convict Daniel West, who receives a mysterious letter promising answers about his past and a substantial inheritance in the small town of Stillwater. There he discovers a community where nothing ever ages, no one dies and nobody ever gets out.

Berlanti and Wray will executive produce with Robert Kirkman, David Alpert, Rick Jacobs, Glenn Geller and Chip Zdarsky of Skybound, Berlanti Productions chair Sarah Schechter, Leigh London Redman, Robbie Rogers and Jonathan Gabay.

Hulu bought Berlanti and Bash Doran’s (Life After Life, The Looming Tower) spec script for Foster Dade and is eyeing a pilot order. It’s based on the novel Foster Dade Explores the Cosmos by Nash Jenkins and delves into the mystery behind a tragedy at a prep school. The show’s logline says it will delve into “privilege, power, sexuality, and masculinity in the age of the Internet, anxiety and pharmaceuticals.” Berlanti, Doran, Schechter, Redman, Jenkins, Rogers and Donald De Line are set to executive produce.

The Max project is still in the early stages of development, but it is a family drama that Berlanti will co-write. The streamer is looking to produce the show in a similar model to The Pitt, with 15 episodes per season and a regular schedule.

Berlanti’s current series include All American at The CW and Found and Brilliant Minds at NBC; the final season of You premiered on Netflix on April 24. He’s also executive producing a live-action Scooby-Doo series at Netflix, which snagged a series order in March. He is repped by CAA.
