DESCRIPTION: (from Amazon's press release, February 2024) Today, Prime Video announced that it has ordered The Runarounds to series. Produced by Skydance Television and created by Jonas Pate (Outer Banks, Aquarius), with a teleplay from David Wilcox (666 Park Avenue, Fringe), The Runarounds is a fictional YA drama, inspired by the real band of the same name. The new eight-episode series will premiere on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide. The fictional series stars the real-life band's members - William Lipton, Axel Ellis, Jeremy Yun, Zendé Murdock, and Jesse Golliher - along with Lilah Pate and Kelley Pereira. The series follows a tight-knit group of young adults from all walks of life who come together to form a rock band the summer after graduating from high school. Against the backdrop of Wilmington, North Carolina, The Runarounds will have to choose between succumbing to the pressures of real life, or risking it all to become the greatest band of all time. |
