HBO has given an official green light to Subject to Change, a new “reality-bending” series from J.J. Abrams, and Showrunner and Executive Producer Jennifer Yale.
The series will follow a desperate college student who signs up for a clinical trial that begins a wild, harrowing, mind and reality-bending adventure.
“It’s been incredible fun weaving this rather insane yarn with Jenn, and I am grateful her and everyone at HBO Max for the opportunity to bring this story to life,” said J.J. Abrams in a recent statement to press.
“I have felt so privileged to work with J.J. and Bad Robot on expanding J.J.’s exhilarating story to create a twisty, thought-provoking thriller where almost anything is possible and yet everything is planned. Now partnering with HBO Max to make it a reality is a dream,” added Yale.
Said Sarah Aubrey, Head of Original Content at HBO Max, “We cannot wait to bring this complex, eye-opening thriller to HBO Max. It will take viewers on an unexpected ride, showcasing the creative brilliance of J.J., Jennifer and the Bad Robot team.”
Subject to Change is produced by Bad Robot in association with Warner Bros. Television. J.J. Abrams and showrunner Jennifer Yale serve as executive producers, along with Bad Robot’s Ben Stephenson.
Bad Robot’s Rachel Rusch Rich is co-executive producer.
As of February 2021, Warner Bros. Television is producing more than 70 scripted shows for on-demand/streaming services, premium/pay and basic cable channels, and the five broadcast networks.
