It has been more than 10 years since we last saw Tina Fey as the lead actress in a series on our screens, after the comedy hit ’30 Rock’ came to an abrupt end on the American channel NBC in 2013. Since then, Fey has been active in the series sector, especially behind the camera: she worked as an author and producer on the Netflix series ‘Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt’ and the Peacock show ‘Girls5Eva’, among others. She has also appeared as a supporting actress in several film and streaming productions, including ‘A Haunting In Venice’ and ‘Only Murders In The Building’.
While we will see Fey again on the big screen on January 25, 2024 in ‘Mean Girls – The Girls Club’, the comedy standout is now in the starting blocks with a new series project. She joins the cast of the remake of the seriesThe four Seasonsin which she is also involved as a screenwriter and producer. How According to reports, the format is moving to Netflix after a tough bidding war in the Hollywood series market.
This is “The Four Seasons”
The series is based on the 1981 cult film of the same name by and starring Alan Alda. In it, three friendly couples from the upper class of New York go on holiday together each of the four seasons. After one of the couples breaks up during their spring trip and a much younger woman is welcomed into their midst, the couple’s friendship is severely tested.
In addition to Fey, her “30 Rock” co-stars Lang Fisher (“Never in My Life”) and Tracey Wigfield (“The Mindy Project”) also serve as writers and executive producers of the comedy series. Alan Alda, the director and lead actor of the original film, will produce the series alongside Marissa Bergman. Fey and Alda previously worked together on the series ’30 Rock’, in which Alda made several guest appearances.
Although production on the series will begin later this year, it is not yet clear when we can expect “The Four Seasons” to release on Netflix.
