Both projects hail from Paramount Television and Anonymous Content and stem from the two companies’ first-look deal.Ĭreated, written and executive produced by Gomez-Rejon, Josh Pate and ‎Nicholas Schutt, Citizen is described as a fresh take on the hero origin story blending elements of magical realism and gritty vigilantism set against the backdrop of a vibrant, “supernaturalized” Los Angeles. Anonymous Content’s David Kanter, Matt DeRoss and Steve Golin also executive produce. Hulu is finalizing deals for pilot orders to Citizen, a supernatural drama from Me And Earl And The Dying Girl director Alfonso Gomez-Rejon, and When The Street Lights Go On, adapted from the Black List feature script by writers Chris Hutton and Eddie O’Keefe, sources say.
