Upcoming FX series Trust is already eyeing its endgame. The plan is for the series to run five seasons spanning 50 years, with each season focusing on a different decade, creator Danny Boyle revealed to Collider:
“We have a television series we’re developing for FX, which is kind of like a five-decade family thing, which in theory would happen over five years. Each [season] would shoot every year for five years, and each series is about a different decade. The first one would be set in the 70s and would happen in Italy and England, and we’re hoping to begin shooting that this summer. And it’s called Trust. So that’s our plan at the moment. So again, it’s interesting because it’s a very different form. Long-term, long-form storytelling and it will be interesting to see how that affects the way one works and one behaves. The actors become the storytellers, really. Once you set them up, they carry the burden of the storytelling. I’m really fascinated by that.”
