HBO Max has ordered Subject to Change, an original story from J.J. Abrams, with Jennifer Yale serving as executive producer and showrunner.
The series follows a desperate college student who signs up for a clinical trial that begins a wild, harrowing, mind and reality-bending adventure. Subject to Change is produced by Bad Robot in association with Warner Bros. Television. J.J. Abrams and showrunner Jennifer Yale serve as executive producers, along with Bad Robot’s Ben Stephenson. Bad Robot’s Rachel Rusch Rich is co-executive producer.
"We cannot wait to bring this complex, eye-opening thriller to HBO Max. It will take viewers on an unexpected ride, showcasing the creative brilliance of J.J., Jennifer, and the Bad Robot team," said Sarah Aubrey, Head of Original Content, HBO Max.
"It’s been incredible fun weaving this rather insane yarn with Jenn, and I am grateful to her and everyone at HBO Max for the opportunity to bring this story to life," Abrams remarked about working alongside Yale on his latest outrageous idea. To which Yale added, “I have felt so privileged to work with J.J. and Bad Robot on expanding J.J.’s exhilarating story to create a twisty, thought-provoking thriller where almost anything is possible and yet everything is planned. Now partnering with HBO Max to make it a reality is a dream.”
While we're all quite familiar with Abrams's work from Lost to Star Trek, Star Wars, Super 8, and Alias, let's take a moment to familiarize ourselves with Yale's library of content. In addition to serving as a writer and executive producer for the Apple TV+ series See, her credits also include projects like Starz’s Da Vinci’s Demons, WGN’s Underground, FX’s Legion, Starz’s Outlander, and Netflix’s Chambers. That's a mighty fine list if you ask me. I say let's go, and see what these two creators can concoct when their Wonder Twin powers activate.
