Tomorrow Studios announces an overall deal with creator and showrunner Chad Hodge

Tomorrow Studios, a partnership between Marty Adelstein and ITV Studios, announces an overall deal with creator and showrunner Chad Hodge and his company Storyland, Inc.

Hodge is creator, showrunner and executive producer of the critically-acclaimed TNT series Good Behavior starring Emmy Award nominee Michelle Dockery, alongside fellow executive producers Adelstein and Tomorrow Studios' President Becky Clements, for which he was nominated for a WGA Award for Best Episodic Drama. Under the deal, Hodge will create new series for the studio, along with supervising development and executive producing series with other writers.

Chad combines being an amazing writer and the consummate showrunner with being a great person. After working together on Good Behavior, extending our relationship to an overall deal was essential as I couldn't imagine him doing future projects with anyone else. He makes the very difficult task of running shows look easy and his taste in material is unsurpassed. We couldn't be more excited about working with Chad, said Adelstein.

Marty and Becky are the creative partners every creator/showrunner dreams of having, said Hodge. After our collaboration on Good Behavior, I can't imagine doing another series without them. I've never wanted to be tied to one studio until now. I've found my perfect home. It's also important to me that each unique project finds the home it deserves, so the independent model of Tomorrow Studios is perfect because it allows us to sell anywhere.

Prior to Good Behavior, Hodge created and executive-produced Wayward Pines (FOX), The Playboy Club (NBC), and Runaway (CW). He also co-wrote the book for the Broadway stage adaptation of Irving Berlins 1942 movie-musical classic Holiday Inn. He adapted The Darkest Minds for 20th Century Fox, based on the New York Times bestselling series by Alexandra Bracken, which had its theatrical release in August 2018. Hodge also wrote the film Anita, about singer and orange juice spokeswoman Anita Bryant, who rocketed to global attention as an outspoken opponent of gay rights when she led the 1977 Save Our Children campaign, successfully repealing a Miami ordinance that prohibited discrimination based on sexual orientation. Hodge will direct.

Hodge is repped by WME and attorney Michael Fuller at Fuller Law.
