Penelope – Netflix September 24, 2024
The eight-episode series titled “Penelope” was developed by Duplass Brothers Productions (DBP) and conceived by Mark Duplass and Mel Eslyn. They collaborated on the script during the pandemic period.

In addition to being the president of DBP, Eslyn is also serving as the showrunner and director for the series, with Jay Duplass, brother of Mark Duplass, and Shuli Harel as executive producer.
In this production, Stott depicts the protagonist, a 16-year-old who struggles to find her place in today’s society. Drawn towards the unexplored wilderness, Penelope sets out to create a fresh existence for herself. Abrams portrays Sam alongside Krisha Fairchild (known from Krisha, Channel Zero, and Freeland) as Helena; and Rhenzy Feliz (recognized from The Penguin, All Together Now, and Encanto) as Peter.
On September 24th, the captivating series “Penelope,” produced by Mark Duplass & Mel Eslyn, will debut on Netflix in the US. The story revolves around Penelope, a character who feels disconnected from society, finding solace and reinvention in the wilderness.

Wolfs – AppleTV+ on September 27, 2024
