Hugh Jackman is attached as an executive producer to a new drama series set up at Fox titled Billionaire Apocalypse. The series is about the richest man in the world having to flee his private island after a global financial collapse.
The series follows “the richest man on the planet, 200 of his employees, and his family as they are forced to flee to his private island in the wake of a global financial collapse, where the employees and family members — who he’s treated as afterthoughts for decades — quickly realize he’s no longer rich and thus no longer in charge.”
Billionaire Apocalypse comes from The Morning Show creator Jay Carson, who is set to write, and executive produce the series. Other producers include Pulp Fiction producer Lawrence Bender and Flesh and Bone producer Kevin Brown.
No casting has been announced for the series, but with Jackman coming on board as a producer, maybe there’s a chance that he will be involved in an acting capacity.
