NBC has ordered a pilot for a dramedy series from “Grandfathered” and “Galavant” executive producer Dan Fogelman.
The untitled hour-long series will follow several characters born on the same day.
John Requa and Glenn Ficarra, who wrote and directed the Will Smith feature film “Focus,” will direct and executive produce the project. Fogelman is writing it with Jess Rosenthal and Charlie Gogolak. The project is being produced by 20th Century Fox Television under Fogelman’s overall deal there.
Fogelman jumped to 20th Century Fox last year from ABC Studios.
Freshman comedy “Grandfathered,” produced by Fogelman, is set to premiere Sept. 29 on Fox. Fogelman is represented by WME and Hansen Jacobsen.
