Fantasy Island - In Development at ABC

Oct 12, 2015

Marking the third time the network has taken on the island drama.
ABC is going back to Fantasy Island.

The network is reteaming with Sony Pictures Television for a potential third TV series based on the drama that ran from 1977-84, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.

The new take, which has received a script plus penalty order from the network, will change things up by replacing original star Ricardo Montalban's Mr. Roarke with a woman. The potential series will follow a brilliant, dynamic and sexy woman who runs a San Francisco-based company that provides clients with his/her most intimate, dark or outlandish fantasy.

Sheldon Turner (Up in the Air, X-Men: First Class) will pen the script and executive produce alongside Jennifer Klein via their Sony Pictures Television-based Vendetta Productions banner. Studio-based Josh Berman (Drop Dead Diva, The Mob Doctor) will serve as a supervising EP.
