Created by Zwar and CJZ, based on the Australian format for Network Ten, Mr. Black is about the acid-tongued Mr. Black, a man who has one dying wish: to break up his adult daughter and her boyfriend – whom he happens to live with.
Berman executive produces via SideCar which co-produces with Fox Entertainment.
Mr. Black premiered on Australia’s Network Ten in May. Created by Zwar and written by Zwar and Amanda Brotchie, the series stars Stephen Curry, Nadine Garner, Sophie Wright, Angela Geraldine Black, Nick Russell and Paul Denny. You can watch a trailer below.
Zwar also co-created the Australian comedy series Squinters, Lowdown and Wilfred.
