Stentz and Clark previously sold a scripted pilot to Apple+ in 2019 based on the Arabian Nights IP, and concocted a re-imaging of The Island Of Dr. Moreau with production partner Gunpowder & Sky, where Clark previously had a production deal.

Clark most recently produced Ryan Phillippe action movie The 2nd, which was sold to multiple markets by Voltage Pictures.

Stentz said: “Like a lot of writers, the enforced shutdown of the pandemic ended up lighting a creative fire in me. After a career spent largely playing in established franchises, I was seized with a desire to make new worlds and new stories. And with the entertainment industry in a period of unprecedented change and upheaval, Geoff and I realized that this was the perfect time for us to create and find those stories and share them with the world.”

“I’m delighted to partner with a prolific writer in Zack”, Clark said. “It’s rare to find a talent like Zack that can write blockbuster films, indie films, television series and even animated series – and I’m confident together we will be an unstoppable force”.
