Kitt and Yorkey are developing the project with Anonymous Content's Joy Gorman. Anonymous Content is among the producers. Downey Jr. also will produce alongside his wife Susan Downey under their production umbrella Team Downey.
It is reported that the Next to Normal writers have tailored the project as a vehicle for Downey Jr., which Warner Brothers purchased. The "Iron Man" star has not officially committed to the project.
