Echoverse, a podcast studio focusing on science fiction, supernatural, and fantasy audio experiences, has announced the launch of The Doctor Is In, a new project with filmmaker Paul Feig, producer Laura Fischer’s Powderkeg Media and Alison Pill.
Pill will produce and star in this series, created and written by Cassie Keet. Greg Lubin and Kesila Childers will produce on behalf of Powderkeg Media.
This darkly comedic supernatural drama features medical student-turned-veterinarian Dr. Kate Spencer (Alison Pill) who works the graveyard shift at an animal hospital in Chicago. When her late-night patients begin to shift from household pets to more exotic creatures like werewolves and vampires, Kate suddenly finds herself in the middle of a brewing underground war.
“The minute we read Cassie’s pilot script, we connected with her smart and irreverent main character. We’re excited to be able to showcase new voices like Cassie’s and to be partnering with Powderkeg and Alison Pill on this unique and unconventional approach to the traditional vampires-vs-werewolves story,” said Mark Stern, President of Echoverse.
“Laura, Kesila, Greg and I are thrilled to bring this unique and fun series to life with our friends at Echoverse,” said Powderkeg Media co-founder Feig. “Telling a story like Cassie’s in podcast form allows us unlimited creativity to explore and expand the boundaries of horror and fantasy, and we can’t imagine a more perfect person to front it all than Alison. We’re counting the days until the next full moon!”
