THIS IS US Creator Dan Fogelman Creating NFL Family Drama Series at Hulu

Dan Fogelman, writer and creator behind the films Crazy, Stupid, Love, and Disney’s Tangled, and Bolt, as well as the hit series This is Us, has signed on to create a new series at Hulu. The generational family drama will be centered around the NFL, and all other details are being kept under wraps so far on the Untitled Series.

Fogelman serves as writer and executive producer on the series. Jess Rosenthal also executive produces via his and Fogleman’s Rhode Island Ave. Productions along with David Ellison, Jesse Sisgold, and Jason T. Reed for Skydance Sports. 20th Television and Skydance Sports will produce. Fogelman is currently under an overall deal at 20th TV.

This is now the second series order Fogelman has landed at Hulu. He is also the creator of the upcoming drama series Paradise starring Sterling K. Brown and James Marsden, which does not have a premiere date at the time of this publishing. Fogelman serves as an executive producer on the popular Hulu series Only Murders in the Building as well.

Fogelman is no stranger to the world of sports dramas. He previously co-created the Fox series Pitch, which told the story of the first woman to play Major League Baseball.

I’m a fan of many of the movies and shows he creates, so I look forward to checking this out as well. Stay tuned for updates as the project moves forward.
