CBS is Developing a Time-Travel Series Titled REPEAT From HEROES Star Masi Oka

CBS is developing a new time-travel series titled Repeat that is coming from executive producers Masi Oka (Heroes) and Sabrina Wind (Muppets Now, Desperate Housewives).

The series is based on the award-winning book of the same name by Kurumi Inui and the 2018 TV series, which aired on Yomiuri Television in Japan. The new adaptation is being written and executive produced by David Zabel (Mercy Street, ER).

Repeat centers on a group of strangers who are “mysteriously propelled back 10 months in time, giving them the chance to right wrongs, undo mistakes, and set their lives on a better path, these ‘repeaters’ soon find that changing their fate is a tricky endeavor with unforeseen and even deadly consequences.”

Oka is the one who found the format and moved the project forward. He will remain hands-on creatively throughout the process and into the series. Does this sound like a project that you’d be interested in checking out?
