The US Office star John Krasinski and co-producer and The Office actor Stephen Merchant are joining forces once more for a new animated comedy called Dream Corp, LLC.
The show has been ordered by Adult Swim and is set inside a neglected dream therapy facility, featuring ‘a rotating cast of desperate patients who have their dreams recorded and analysed by Dream Corp's absent-minded professor, Dr Roberts (Jon Gries), and his team of unremarkable scientists.’
It will be Adult Swim’s first original series made using rotoscope techniques (think A Scanner Darkly) which sees the animators trace over live-action footage.
Krasinski and Merchant will co-executive produce the show alongside Daniel Steven.
Merchant recently scored a guest-starring role in The Big Bang Theory, while Krasinski has gone all beardy and though for Michael Bay’s Benghazi movie 13 Hours.
