Netflix today announced that Academy Award-nominated actor Colman Domingo (Rustin, The Color Purple, Euphoria) has joined the cast of The Four Seasons, an all-new comedy series adaptation from Tina Fey (30 Rock, Mean Girls), Lang Fisher (Never Have I Ever, The Mindy Project, and Tracey Wigfield (30 Rock, The Mindy Project). Domingo joins previously announced stars Fey and Steve Carell (The Office, The Patient) in a series regular role.
The series, produced by Universal Television, is based on the 1981 feature film of the same name from Universal Pictures that was written and directed by Alan Alda, produced by Martin Bregman, and starred Alda and Carol Burnett. It followed three couples who went on vacation together every year but whose worlds are upended when one of them divorces.
The Four Seasons is slated to begin production later this year.
The Four Seasons is executive produced by Tina Fey, Lang Fisher, Tracey Wigfield, David Miner (30 Rock, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt), Eric Gurian (30 Rock, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt), and Jeff Richmond (30 Rock, Girls5Eva). Alan Alda and Marissa Bregman will produce. The series is written by Fey, Fisher and Wigfield. Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group, is the producing studio. Little Stranger, Inc. is the production company.
