EXCLUSIVE: Kevin Iannucci and Bethany Brown are set as series regulars opposite Ben Rappaport and Alexandra Chando in NBC’s untitled drama pilot based on the award-winning Dutch series 'Adam & Eva'
The project, described as a funny and heartfelt drama, chronicles the epic love and lives of two complete strangers, Adam and Eva , whose multiple run-ins begin to defy coincidence, leading both to believe in fate. The show breaks the mold by pairing a serialized, stand-up-and-cheer romantic comedy with the wildly diverse and often unexpected human stories of anyone who finds themselves six degrees from Adam and Eva.
Iannucci will play Derek, Adam’s new co-worker, a damn-the-torpedoes truth-teller on a quest to find love. Brown will portray Neela, Eva’s former art school buddy, current roommate and ride-or-die best friend. The Dutch series, which drew critical acclaim and ran from 2011-16, starred Teun Luijkx as Adam and Eva van de Wijdeven as Eva.
The adaptation is produced by Universal Television in association with 6107 Productions, David Janollari Entertainment and Willy Waltz International., with Elizabeth Reaser and Donald Faison; and the upcoming featurealongside Woody Harrelson and Kaitlin Olson, directed by Bobby Farrelly. Iannucci is repped by KMR & Associates.
