PEACOCK ANNOUNCES STRAIGHT-TO-SERIES ORDER OF "FIELD OF DREAMS"

Series from Universal Television will be Written and Executive Produced by Michael Schur

· Peacock announced today a straight-to-series-order for FIELD OF DREAMS from Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group.

· The series will be executive produced by Michael Schur (Fremulon), Lawrence Gordon (The Gordon Company), David Miner and Morgan Sackett. Schur will also write the series.

· Based on Universal Pictures' Academy Award(R)-nominated film "Field of Dreams," the series will reimagine the mixture of family, baseball, Iowa and magic that makes the movie so enduring and beloved.

· "Through the years, 'Field of Dreams' has remained a fan favorite, maintaining its rightful position in the zeitgeist," said Lisa Katz, President, NBCUniversal Television and Streaming. "It's whimsical and grounded, a space where Mike Schur excels, and we're looking forward to bringing a new version of this classic to Peacock."

· "'Field of Dreams' is an iconic Universal Film title from venerable producers Lawrence and Charles Gordon, that we could only have entrusted to Mike Schur," said Erin Underhill, President, Universal Television. "His talent, his love for baseball and his reverence for its themes make him the perfect choice to revisit this beloved film that evokes nostalgia and visceral emotion in so many of its fans."

· FIELD OF DREAMS marks another project that Peacock has with Schur, following the critically acclaimed comedy RUTHERFORD FALLS also from Sierra Teller Ornelas and Ed Helms that was recently picked up for a second season.

· This is the latest collaboration between NBCUniversal's television and film studios, with the most recent being a series adaptation of Universal Picture's hit comedy TED announced earlier this year. The live-action series, from executive producer Seth MacFarlane, is also set for Peacock.

· Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group, is one of the largest and most successful television production companies in the United States.
