The project, which Lear has been championing for more than seven years, is described as a humorous and inspiring look at the shared joys and challenges we all experience at any stage of life. NBC notes the potential series is inspired by Lear, 95, and his secret to longevity: to continue learning and growing — but especially when society expects you to slow down. It’s based on Lear’s personal experiences and will be told in partnership with Tolan’s authentic and irreverent voice.
Sony Pictures Television Studio, Tolan’s studio-based The Cloudland Co. and Lear’s Act III Productions will produce. Lear, Tolan and Act III head of production and development Brent Miller will exec produce. Should Guess Who Died move to series, it would be Lear’s second show currently on the air, joining Netflix’s One Day at a Time reboot, which is now in production on season two.
