Susan Rovner, who oversees Peacock and NBC, recently told The Hollywood Reporter that the streamer wasn’t established enough to program to a young adult audience.

It’s interesting that the series was set up at Amazon, rather than Universal TV’s streaming sibling Peacock.
My So-Called Company’s Emily Cummins and Lockhart will also exec produce alongside Plec and MacKenzie. Plec and MacKenzie will write the series together, with the former penning the pilot and the latter handling the second episode.

The novel has sold nearly 3 million copies and spent weeks on the New York Times’ best-seller list. The series is described as a tragic love story and an amnesia thriller that is set on a privately owned island off the coast of Massachusetts.
