Quibi, a new short-form mobile video platform set to launch next year, has given a series order to The Now, a comedy in which Dave is set to star in and to be directed by Pete Jones and Bobby Farrelly.
HOLLYWOOD REPORTER – The project from Anonymous Content has been in development at Quibi since July. The Now centers on Ed Poole (Franco), a man considering suicide who achieves clarity when a secret from his past has seemingly destroyed his future. He soon realizes that the only thing that will make his life worth living is to forget the past, screw the future and live in the present.
