Another movie classic is getting a television reboot treatment. Hulu is developing an hour-long anthology series based on the 1994 romantic comedy film Four Weddings and a Funeral. Mindy Kaling and Matt Warburton, who worked together on The Mindy Project, will write and executive produce the series.
The anthology series adaptation of Four Weddings and a Funeral will follow a group of friends as their lives intersect through these five events, with each season following a different story arc. They are exploring an idea to have different characters in a different location each season, with the lead possibly remaining the same.
Richard Curtis (who wrote the film) will also executive produce the series along with Jonathan Price, Tim Bevan, Eric Fellner, and Howard Klein. MGM Television is producing along with Universal Television. Kaling and Warburton are currently working on the scripts. Hulu is expected to give a straight-to-series order by early next year.
