Emmy nominee B.J. Novak (The Office) will write and executive produce a multi-camera comedy series titled Young People for HBO Max, according to Variety, after receiving a multi-commitment at the streaming platform with a penalty attached.
The anthology series is executive produced by Novak, who wrote and directed the first two episodes.
The news follows the recent announcement that Novak is also developing an untitled anthology drama series at FX.
The untitled anthology series will be using the boldest issues of our time as a jumping-off point to tell singular, character-driven stories about the world we live in today.
