EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE Team Developing New Comedy Series MASON with Nathan Min and Steven Yeun
The writers and directors of this year’s incredible film Everything Everywhere All At Once, Daniel Scheinert and Daniel Kwan, also known as the Daniels, are teaming up with Nathan Min and Steven Yeun to make a new comedy series at Showtime titled Mason. Min created the project with A24, and he will also executive produce and star in the series that is based on his life. The show is described as a surrealist comedy about a quiet man named Nathan, often misheard as “Mason,” seeking connection in a loud world.
The Daniels will direct and executive produce with Yeun also executive producing. The Daniels’ producing partner Jonathan Wang will also executive produce. Yeun executive produces under his Universal Remote banner along with Adam Kopp.
Amy Israel, Showtime’s executive vice president of original programming for global scripted series, said of the project:
“Nathan has brought Showtime a disarmingly funny and emotional project that feels like a punch to the gut in how astutely it conveys the trials and tribulations of being a human today. We can’t wait to see him team up with Daniels – who have emerged as a force with their incredible, mind-bending film that revolutionized what seemed possible on the screen – as well as the immensely multi-talented Steven Yeun and our friends at A24. MASON has every chance of emerging as a brilliant and cathartic comedy for our viewers.”
The Daniels’ other credits include critically-acclaimed films like Swiss Army Man, as well as the Showtime series On Becoming a God in Central Florida, and the Comedy Central series Awkwafina Is Nora From Queens.
The Daniels definitely have our attention. I look forward to checking this series out. We will let you know as Mason is further along in the production process.
