Description
"Since he was a teenager, David has struggled with mental illness. Diagnosed as schizophrenic, David has been in and out of psychiatric hospitals for years. But after a strange encounter with a fellow patient, he’s confronted with the possibility that the voices he hears and the visions he sees might be real."
Casting
Dan Stevens will star in the series as David Haller, described as "a haunted man, trying to find his way back to sanity, but he's getting tired and is about to give up when he meets the girl of his dreams."
Aubrey Plaza will play Haller's best friend Lenny. Lenny has lived a life of substance abuse, but "knows that any day now her life is going to turn around" thus making her an "impossible optimist" with a "rough demeanor.
