Hulu Develops Dewayne Perkins Ensemble Comedy About 'Date by Jury'

The project pairs Perkins’ rising comic voice with Stephen Curry’s Unanimous Media to broaden that production banner’s TV slate.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report that Hulu is developing an untitled ensemble comedy built around a “date by jury” premise in which a friend group votes on each other’s major relationship choices.
  • Dewayne Perkins is attached to write the series, serve as an executive producer, and potentially star if Hulu gives the show a formal order.
  • Stephen Curry’s Unanimous Media is listed as an executive producer on the project alongside co‑founder Erick Peyton and producer Sharla Sumpter Bridgett.
  • The project is currently in early development and has not yet been greenlit for a season or released a cast, production schedule, or premiere date.
  • Perkins arrives on the series with recent credits that include The Studio and The Blackening, and the show could broaden Unanimous Media’s output beyond its prior family, faith and sports projects.
