The Hollywood Reporter

MacGyver executive producer David Slack is writing the potential series "about an enigmatic billionaire and a group of people who have had their bodies frozen," per The Hollywood Reporter. "The billionaire gathers more than 250 such people, who have attempted to cheat death by undergoing the freezing process in hopes that a future medical breakthrough will someday allow them to be brought back to life. As these people from different moments in time wake up, however, they come to realize you can't cheat death without paying a price."
