Seth MacFarlane Developing a Series Adaptation of The Time Travel Love Story ALL OUR WRONG TODAYS
Seth MacFarlane has jumped on board a new TV series project to develop and he’s teaming up with Amy Pascal for it. They will be adapting Elan Mastai’s novel All Our Wrong Todays and it will air on Peacock.
The series is described as a “mind bending time travel love story that explores alternate versions of ourselves in dramatically surprising and often unexpected ways.”
It will tell the story of Tom Barren’s world, set in 2016, “where technology has solved all of humanity’s problems—there’s no war, no poverty, no under-ripe avocadoes. Unfortunately, Tom isn’t happy. He’s lost the girl of his dreams. And what do you do when you’re heartbroken and have a time machine? Something stupid. Finding himself stranded in a terrible alternate reality, Tom is desperate to fix his mistake and go home. Right up until the moment he discovers wonderfully unexpected versions of his family, his career, and the woman who may just be the love of his life. Now Tom faces an impossible choice. Go back to his perfect but loveless life. Or stay in our messy reality with a soulmate by his side. His search for the answer takes him across continents and timelines in a quest to figure out, finally, who he really is and what his future is supposed to be.”
That sounds like it’ll be quite an epic time-traveling journey. I’m not familiar with the book, but it sounds like it’ll make a great series!
The series is being written by the author of the novel, who is also a writer and supervising producer on NBC’s This is Us. Seth MacFarlane, Erica Huggins, and Amy Pascal are executive producers.
