Joe Otterson TV Reporter The live-action “She-Ra” series in development at Amazon MGM Studios has found its writer. Variety has learned exclusively that Heidi Schreck has joined the project as writer and executive producer.
It was previously reported that Nicole Kassell is attached to direct and executive produce. Robin Sweet will also executive produce, along with DreamWorks Animation.
DreamWorks recently produced the Netflix animated series “She-Ra and the Princesses of Power.” However, the live-action version will be a new, standalone story and will not be connected to the animated show.
Amazon MGM Studios will produce. Variety reported that “She-Ra” was in early development at the streamer in September 2021. The logline for the show describes it as “an epic fantasy series about an orphaned young woman who leads a revolution to save her planet from annihilation.” Schreck has previously worked on shows like “Billions” and “Nurse Jackie” at Showtime, “Dispatches from Elsewhere” at AMC, and the Amazon series “I Love Dick” starring Kathryn Hahn and Kevin Bacon.
