FOX Entertainment Studios (FES) has entered into a development commitment with Frankie Quiñones for an as-yet-untitled comedy project that he will co-write and star in.
The L.A.-based comedian and actor is known for his “Creeper” character, which has found a fanbase online, and the Hulu comedy This Fool. He also released a comedy special on Hulu this year, directed by Ali Wong. Quiñones also filmed a pilot at NBC and has a recurring role on St. Denis Medical. He will soon star in Tom Segura’s indie feature El Tigre and the Netflix film The Fifth Wheel.
“Frankie is the kind of multi-hyphenate talent we’re always looking to build with—a creator who brings an unmistakable point of view, distinct originality, and characters that resonate far beyond the laughs and comedic precision,” said Hannah Pillemer, head of scripted at FOX Entertainment Studios. “He has a rare ability to ground bold, irreverent comedy in heart and authenticity, and audiences connect to that in a powerful way. We’re excited to partner with Frankie to develop a series that fully showcases his voice and expands his creative footprint in a meaningful way.”
