Moritz and Pavun Shetty likewise executive producing. (Deadline.com)

Lee Daniels Entertainment's Marc Velez will also executive produce alongside Breece and Daniels for 20th Television. Schraft serves as a consulting producer. (Deadline.com)

WOMAN IN THE BOOK (Facebook Watch, New!) - Crypt TV has booked its first animated horror series at the streaming service which "follows the lives of three estranged siblings who reunite at an aging Mexican hacienda to wrestle for their inheritance, but inadvertently unleash a book-bound horror upon them that has plagued their family for generations." Diane Guerrero, Alfonso Herrera, Jose Ruiz-Gonzales and Bryan Greenberg will voice the project, with Daniel Persitz, Eva Gonzalez Szigriszt and Pamela Garcia Rooney as writers; Jeanette Moreno King and Jeanette Jeanenne as directors; Jack Davis, Kate Krantz, Darren Brandl, Simon Ore, James Fino and Paul Young as executive producers; Mike Griffin as a co-executive producer; and Allison Vanore and Justin Martinez, who were behind the original 2016 Crypt TV digital series, as co-producers.
