Amy Poehler to develop animated comedy at Fox

Press Trust of India  |  Los Angeles 

Amy Poehler is re-teaming with former "Parks and Recreation" producer Mike Scully and his wife/producing partner Julie Scully for an untitled animated comedy at Fox.

The network has ordered a script and pilot presentation for the project.


The potential series centers on the family and friends of 15-year-old Duncan Harris, an average kid with dreams of being a UFC fighter, tech billionaire, video game champ - or any job where one makes a ton of money and doesn't have to wear a tie, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Poehler is attached to voice multiple characters.

Mike and Julie, who together worked on Fox's long-running animated hit "The Simpsons", will pen the script.

All three will executive produce the project, which is a co-production between 20th Century Fox Television and Universal Television.
