Marvel Studios is expanding its television universe with a new spy thriller series titled 'Zodiac,' set to be written by Israeli writers Amit Cohen and Ron Leshem. While details remain scarce, the series will reportedly follow a pair of spies on a global chase. This announcement comes as Jenna Ortega, fresh off production for 'Wednesday' Season 3, plans to take a break from television to explore other opportunities.
In other entertainment industry developments, NBC has given a full 18-episode season order to its freshman drama 'Line of Fire.' Meanwhile, Amazon Prime Video is shifting its focus from Young Adult (YA) content to the 'New Adult' demographic, aiming for a slightly older and edgier audience. The long-running medical drama 'Grey's Anatomy' has also premiered its 23rd season, available for streaming.
