POP SUMMONS KILLER CAST FOR SUPERNATURAL SCRIPTED COMEDY PILOT "THE DEMONS OF DORIAN GUNN"

LOS ANGELES - Jan. 14, 2018 - THE DEMONS OF DORIAN GUNN, Pop's supernatural comedy pilot executive produced by Krysten Ritter and JAX Media, will star Jeffery Self ("Search Party"), Chrissie Fit ("Pitch Perfect 2" and "Pitch Perfect 3"), H. Jon Benjamin ("Archer"), Lateefah Holder ("Disjointed," "Transparent") and Kyle Harris ("Stitchers," "High Maintenance").

Written by Evan Greenspoon and Brandon Scott Jones ("Upright Citizens Brigade"), THE DEMONS OF DORIAN GUNN follows disgraced New York socialite Dorian Gunn who discovers he's descended from a long line of demon hunters and is forced to abandon his life of leisure to protect humanity from monsters as they emerge from the gates of hell.

Pilot production for THE DEMONS OF DORIAN GUNN kicks off this month in New York City.

Jeffrey Self stars as the series' antihero Dorian Gunn. After the mysterious death of his parents, Dorian's gluttonous life as a celebutante has been in a downward spiral plagued with booze-filled antics that threaten his status with the family business. Although he desperately just wants to be a B-list celebrity, Dorian soon realizes his privileged life is going to become a bit more complicated by the fact he's a Guardian destined to protect the world from demons.

Chrissie Fit stars as Leonie Crofton-Sears, Dorian's mortal frenemy. Best friends since childhood, Leonie is the charming, trendy and charismatic older sister Dorian wished he always had. She seems lovely until you remember those are also the traits of a sociopath. Leonie soon realizes she too comes from a magical linage - the cruel catch, she's Dorian's evil counterpart destined to bring demons through the Gate that Dorian is meant to defend.

H. Jon Benjamin plays Wormwood, a demon tasked with maintaining the balance of good and evil by overseeing the Guardians sworn to protect the living from demonic forces. Albeit begrudgingly, Wormwood serves as a guide to help Dorian and the other Guardians fulfill their destinies, proving good and evil are not always black and white.

Lateefah Holder stars as the straight shooter Amy Bugda, Dorian's court-appointed addiction sponsor who quickly becomes his indispensable right-hand woman. Her moral compass rarely points in the wrong direction, so demon hunter or no, Dorian's sobriety will not go unchecked. Her inability to stray from a righteous path can be frustrating at times, but her kind heart makes her a breath of fresh air.

Kyle Harris stars as Trip Chapman, the embodiment of white privilege. A filthy-rich, power-hungry 20-something-year-old, he was recently appointed acting executive director of the Greenwich Club by his ailing father. With this title, Trip is now guarding the one gate Dorian, Leonie and their wealthy cohorts desperately want to enter.

THE DEMONS OF DORIAN GUNN is written by Evan Greenspoon and Brandon Scott Jones and executive produced by Tony Hernandez and Lilly Burns of JAX Media, Kara Welker of Generate, and actress Krysten Ritter through her production company Silent Machine. John Skidmore serves as producer. Mike Poisson and Peggy Cheng from Silent Machine serve as co-executive producers.
