Overview

  • She disclosed the halt in an Aug. 25 Substack post after years of development with creator Don Reo.
  • Disney, which holds the IP, initially signaled support before new leadership told them the project could not be produced.
  • When they sought to shop it elsewhere, they were told Disney would retain rights in case it pursues its own version.
  • Bialik says a new script existed and original cast participation had been lined up during earlier talks.
  • Disney has not publicly commented, and Bialik writes the collapse has dampened her interest in on-camera roles.
