Disgruntled angels are coming to Hulu. The streamer has ordered Standing By, a satirical look into the lives of a group of eternally bound, irritated guardian angels and the lessons they’ll eventually learn from not only the dysfunctional humans they’re in charge of protecting, but also each other.
The animated series is from 20th TV Animation and creators Dan Levy and Ally Pankiw. Danielle Uhlarik will serve as showrunner and executive producer. “Standing By is about the hilarity, embarrassment, and melodrama of everyday life as observed by a team of judgmental, gossip-starved Guardian Angels.
We are very excited to bring this world to life with the help of Hulu, 20th Television Animation, and Bento Box Entertainment.
Not to mention an insanely brilliant cast of actors,” said Levy and Pankiw in a joint statement. Levy will contribute his voiceover talents to Standing By, along with David Tennant, Natalie Palamides, Glenn Close, Poppy Liu and Samira Wiley.
