Eleven will produce and develop the series, which will follow a young man in East London dealing with the complex relationship between his working-class background and success in the music industry.
Arlo will create the show alongside writer and director Aki Omoshaybi, whose debut feature film as a writer, director and producer, “Real,” had its world premiere at the 63rd BFI London Film Festival and streams on Sky. Omoshaybi was long listed at the British Independent Film Awards for best debut director, best debut screenwriter and the Raindance Discovery Award. He has a scripted commission at Channel 4 with his series “Little Faith,” and a second feature film has just been greenlit.
“Arlo and Aki are prodigiously talented, insightful people as well as being beautifully in tune when it comes to the story they want to tell together,” added Eleven’s co-founder and creative director Joel Wilson. “It has been a real privilege to sit with them and watch this series begin to come to life.”
