Katya Martín, the star of ABC’s “Promised Land,” has landed the lead role in the upcoming indie feature “The Death That Awaits.”
Martín will play a drifter in search of answers to a mystery from her past, who takes on a job in the countryside looking after a sick teen. She soon realizes the teen is undergoing a mysterious transformation that her parents will do anything to stop. Production is targeting a spring start in Los Angeles. No distributor is presently attached.
The project comes from director and executive producer Richard J. Lee, part of the creative team behind “Los Pollos Hermanos Employee Training,” spinoff shorts of the hit AMC drama “Better Call Saul.” The videos went viral, and nabbed an Emmy for best short form comedy or drama series in 2017.
The script is from Rachel Kiley, who previously worked as a co-producer on The CW’s musical dramedy...

Bernie Su and Pemberley Digital’s The Lizzie Bennet Diaries will live on, but this time in another book. The story of hit web series, which garnered over 58 million views on its channel, will continue with an original book called The Epic Adventures of Lydia Bennet, based on Lizzie’s rambunctious youngest sibling.
The Epic Adventures of Lydia Bennet will pick up where Lizzie Bennet left off. Now that Lizzie and Jane are out of the house, Lydia (played by Mary Kate Wiles in the web series) must take charge of her own future after being humiliated online by her ex-boyfriend. The youngest Bennet sister has matured, is working to finish her college degree, and is learning how to become an adult by figuring out who she can (and can’t) trust.
The newest addition to the Lizzie Bennet franchise will be the first book to tell the Bennet family...

It is a truth universally acknowledged… that Jane Austen’s novels will never stop being reimagined, readapted, or reworked. But among the countless parodies, books, and films that are based on Pride and Prejudice, only “The Lizzie Bennet Diaries” managed to make it a web-based, immersive experience. The web series, a modern adaptation co-created by Bernie Su and Hank Green, premiered in 2012 and ended this year after 100 episodes, finishing off a stellar 2013 by winning a Creative Arts Emmy.
At the center of the series were the three — not five, as in the original — Bennet sisters: Jane, Lizzie, and Lydia. Played by Laura Spencer,...

March 28 marked the end of ground-breaking new media series The Lizzie Bennet Diaries (Lbd). The brainchild of Bernie Su and Hank Green, the series was a modern interpretation of the Jane Austen classic Pride & Prejudice. The series also successfully experimented with several interactive and transmedia practices, such as creating Twitter accounts for the characters to have them interact with each other, programming off-shoot video series for secondary characters, and more. Oh, yes, and it won a Streamy Award for this very reason. Some of us have been watching Lbd ever since the beginning, and others have popped into the audience mid-way through. But others have been involved far longer, like the series’ writers. What might they be feeling now that all their hard work has come to a close and the second chapter in their transmedia world is just beginning? I chatted with a few members of the Lbd writing team - Rachel Kiley,...
