ABC Family has greenlit a pilot for original drama series “Stay,” the cabler announced Thursday.
The thriller revolves around a recently widowed police detective and his two daughters who are stranded at a foreboding hotel and must unravel its mysteries to escape.
“‘Stay’ is an emotionally-powerful story about a fractured family who comes back together under the most unexpected of circumstances,” said Karey Burke, exec VP of programming and development of ABC Family. “‘Stay’ is a haunting and surprising ride that we are excited to bring to life.”
The one-hour project is written and exec produced by Spenser Cohen, who is new to the scripted arena, and created E!’s unscripted docu-special “Macklemore’s Big Surprise.” Jon Turteltaub (“National Treasure,” “Sorcerer’s Apprentice”) will direct the pilot and also serve as an exec producer, along with Anna Halberg (“Macklemore’s Big Surprise”).
