Amazon Studios Developing High Concept Relationship Comedy ‘Kismet’

Amazon has put in development Kismet, a half-hour comedy project from writer Marc Klein (Serendipity, Mirror, Mirror) and Radius Entertainment’s Carol Bodie. Based on an original idea from Klein, Kismet is a Sliding Doors-style parallel-reality love story, which follows one couple who meet, date and marry. But what if they hadn’t met? Kismet chronicles their lives both as a married couple who’ve met and as two single people who’ve never met. As their lives separate and dovetail, we discover that there is no single version of a person’s life that is better than any other. Klein, repped by UTA, Tobin Babst and Karl Austen, is writing the script and will executive produce with Bodie.
