Dan Jinks to Executive Produce ‘Sub/Liminal’ Anthology Series at Nebula
Indie streamer Nebula has unveiled its first original scripted series, dark anthology Sub/Liminal with Oscar winner Dan Jinks on board to executive produce.
Sub/Liminal is touted as resembling The Twilight Zone and Black Mirror as it explores power dynamics in human relationships and what happens when those relationships go off kilter. The first season will be six standalone episodes, with stories from Nebula content creators brought to the screen by seasoned directors and producers.
The series is set to begin production later this year and underlines efforts by Nebula as an indie streaming platform to work with big name Hollywood players.
“Dan Jinks has an Oscar. I’m doing whatever he says,” Nebula CEO Dave Wiskus said in a statement.
For his part, Jinks, who produced the Oscar-winning American Beauty movie, which starred Kevin Spacey and Annette Bening, welcomed collaborating with Nebula as it looks to compete in an increasingly crowded streaming TV arena.
“I’m very much looking forward to working with (CEO) Dave Wiskus and the amazing writers and directors he has assembled at Nebula for this exciting new series,” Jinks said in a statement. His film credits include Milk, starring Sean Penn; director Tim Burton’s Big Fish; Nothing to Lose, starring Martin Lawrence; and Down With Love, starring Renée Zellweger and Ewan McGregor.
Nebula, an upstart streamer owned by content creators and targeting niche audiences, last year launched Nebula Motion Pictures, a studio arm to create a production pipeline for digital creators to turn their stories into films and TV content.
