Peacock developing The Little Mermaid follow-up Washed Up

TVLine

The sequel series will pick up 15 years after the Disney movie, with the former mermaid “now miserable, unmotivated and in a loveless marriage. In other words, just a basic bitch human," per the official description. "But when her father suddenly dies, she suspects foul play and embarks on an epic adventure to save not only her underwater kingdom but all of humankind!” Jane the Virgin writer Gracie Glassmeyer created Washed Up, with Jane the Virgin creator Jennie Snyder Urman on board as executive producer.
