From new writer Emma Moran
Disney+ has ordered a new superhero comedy from Northern Irish writer Emma Moran.
Extraordinary revolves around a woman living in a world where everyone has a superpower - except her.
It is the first TV commission for Moran, who has contributed to Have I Got News For You and Newsjack and was part of the 2017 Edinburgh Fringe sketch show Galpals.
She described Extraordinary as ‘somewhere between a sitcom and an existential crisis’ and ‘young, female and fresh’.
Moran, who was part of the BBC s Comedy Room development group in 2019, added: ‘It’s a story about real life and real identity crises it just happens to be set in a world where superpowers exist. This show is uniquely British but with universal themes: everyone can relate to the feeling that we don’t quite measure up.’
