COVERS (NETFLIX)
DEVELOPMENT HISTORY:
1/12/24
STATUS:
currently in development (2024-2025 season)
DEVELOPMENT STAGE:
ordered to series
DESCRIPTION:
(from Netflix's press release, January 2024) Inspired by real events, Covers poses the question, what if university life - the hard-partying, test-cramming, hookup-regretting reality of a college student - was actually a ruse for a more complex identity, one that no one would suspect - as intelligence officers working covertly for MI6? Or, to put it bluntly, spies. The heroes of Covers are clandestine officials relying on their day jobs as the 21-year-old elites of Oxford University. Taking us into the hardest to infiltrate boardrooms and bedrooms, our spies will search not only for answers, but for identity and affirmation in a job where identity switches as quickly as an outfit change from class to club.
