"I'm thrilled to embark on a new journey with Pearlena and the group of extraordinary women who are ruling the world at Universal Television," Plec said. "They’ve made it abundantly clear just how much opportunity there is at the studio right now, with the launch of Peacock and their active relationships with the other streamers, not to mention the broadcast opportunities.
Plec becomes the latest writer-producer to move her overall deal as media giants look for proven showrunners who can juggle multiple projects at a time as they look to program for multiple platforms and draw viewers to new subscription platforms. At Universal TV, Plec joins a roster of producers including Lorne Michaels, Dick Wolf, Tina Fey, Mike Schur, Nahnatchka Khan, Larry Wilmore and Seth MacFarlane, with the latter having exited his longtime home at 20th TV for a sprawling deal with all of NBCUniversal's studios.
