The drama will be serialized and utilize bits and pieces of stories like Little Red Riding Hood, The Three Little Bigs, and Hansel and Gretel.
The project scored a straight-to-series order last year, and the casting of Kim Cattrall (as reported by TVLine) promises to raise its profile significantly.
Tell Me a Story was first announced back in November as a project that will put dark twists on fairy tales not generally known for their darkness.
In an interesting twist, the show will be set in present-day New York.
