Today, Yahoo has confirmed that production has begun on "Other Space," a new half-hour comedy series slated for release on Yahoo Spring 2015. Created by the multi-talented, three time Emmy Nominee, Paul Feig ("Bridesmaids," "The Heat," "Freaks and Geeks," and the upcoming "Spy" ), "Other Space" is a journey in unknown space set in the early 22nd century, when the human race has mapped most of the known universe, failed to find alien life, and frankly gotten a little tired of the whole thing.

Feig, who wrote the pilot, will executive produce the eight episode series with Owen Ellickson. Academy Award winner Luke Matheny ("God of Love"), Lucia Aniello ("Broad City"), primetime Emmy Award Winner Rob Cohen ("Big Bang Theory"), The Nix Brothers ("The Grawlix," "Those Who Can't"), and Matt Sohn ("New Girl," "Parks and Recreation") will direct the series along with Feig who is slated to direct the finale.

"Other Space" will feature a group of young, fresh actors cast by longtime Feig collaborator Allison Jones. Playing the ship's crew - a collection of over-matched rookies, feuding siblings, burned-out veterans and obsolete robots include Karan Soni ("Betas," "Safety Not Guaranteed"), Eugene Cordero ("House of Lies"), Milana Vayntrub ("Silicon Valley"), Conor Leslie ("Klondike"), Neil Casey ("Broad City," "The League), Bess Rous ("Murder in the First"), and the reunion of Trace Beaulieu and Joel Hodgson of "Mystery Science Theater" fame.
