Kaitlyn Dever & Jon Bernthal Join New FX Pilot from BJ Novak

The Office star BJ Novak will be writing, directing, and executive producing a new pilot for FX Networks and a star-studded cast is attached!

Platform is an “anthological series that uses the boldest issues of our times as a jumping-off point to tell singular, character-driven stories about the world we live in today,” according to Deadline.

It sounds like each story will be contained in each half-hour episode. Two episodes are being filmed and one is a dramatic one while the other is more comedic.

Kaitlyn Dever, Jon Bernthal, Lucas Hedges, Boyd Holbrook, O’Shea Jackson Jr., George Wallace and Ed Asner are among the actors starring in the pilot.

BJ served creative roles on both The Office and The Mindy Project, in addition to his acting commitments.
