The show was created by Mike Weiss and Heidi Cole McAdams, who also wrote the screenplays for all ten episodes. The director of the upcoming “Snow White” remake, Marc Webb, helmed the pilot, with Dinh Thai, Yangzom Brauen, and David Petrarca also lending their vision for several episodes.
Here is the plot synopsis:
“Set amidst the glamor of the global elite, “Death and Other Details” centers on the brilliant and restless Imogene Scott (Violett Beane), who finds herself in the wrong place/wrong time (okay, it was kinda her fault) and becomes the prime suspect in a locked room murder mystery. The setting? A lavishly restored Mediterranean ocean liner. Suspects? Every pampered guest and every exhausted crew member. The problem? To prove her innocence, she must partner with a man she despises—Rufus Cotesworth (Mandy Patinkin), the world’s greatest detective.”
Webb, Weiss, and McAdams act as executive producers, with Mark Martin and ABC Signature also producing the series. The first two episodes of the ten-episode series will premiere on Hulu on January 16, 2024, with subsequent episodes released weekly until March 5, when two episodes capping off the series will be released on the streaming service.
