Why FX on Hulu: Averill’s three-year Netflix deal would likely prevent her from working on our hypothetical Murderbot Diaries adaptation for FX on Hulu. Averill’s work spans a unique composite of drama mixed with humor (see: The Good Wife, Season 3 Episode 22, “The Dream Team”), a necessity for the dry and literal point of view that drives The Murderbot Diaries. Its young heroes share a similar naiveté and innocence as Murderbot and the quality world-building involved would translate well to the distant future. Locke & Key may be a bit inconsistent, but it’s undeniably fun and captures the spooky atmospheric tone it’s shooting for. She also served as executive producer and co-writer on The Haunting of Hill House with her episode “The Bent-Neck Lady” drawing particular acclaim. Before Lock & Key, Averill cut her teeth as a writer and producer on The Good Wife and Jane The Virgin. In December, Netflix picked up the young adult fantasy series for a second season and signed Averill to a three-year overall deal. Why Meredith Averill should executive produce: In 2018, Averill was tapped as co-showrunner and executive producer for Netflix’s adaptation of Locke & Key, which she developed along Carlton Cuse and Aron Eli Coleite.
