Deadline
A24 has begun production and will independently finance the first season of Moonbase 8, a six-episode original comedy series from Portlandia co-creators Fred Armisen and Jonathan Krisel, Tim Heidecker (Tom Goes To The Mayor) and John C. Reilly (Wreck-It Ralph). Armisen, Heidecker and Reilly also are set to star and Krisel will direct.
Moonbase 8 follows three subpar astronauts living in NASAs Moon Base Simulator in the desert with high hopes of being the next chosen to travel through to the moon.
A24 will produce alongside Abso Lutely Productions with Armisen, Reilly, Heidecker, Krisel, and Dave Kneebone all serving as Executive Producers. The studio will look to partner with a network when the episodes have been completed.
Moonbase 8 is pure comic genius and we are thrilled to be a part of this show from the ground up, says A24. We cant wait to introduce this fearless group of astronauts as they prepare to go where several people have gone before but not as hilariously.
