Comics veteran Mark Guggenheim is an executive producer for ABC’s new superhero-family series No Ordinary Family starring Michael Chiklis, and the L.A. Times today featured an interview with the writer-producer where he talked about the series (in addition to the Green Lantern movie!)
Here’s a brief excerpt:
“It’s basically your typical family drama with the one atypical addition that the people in the family have superpowers. Greg Berlanti and Jon Feldman created the show and they did a really amazing job with the characters and the script. They’re both very active in the production of the pilot, but they also have other things on their plate — for example, this is only one of two pilots that Jon is producing this year — so the studio asked me to come in and help out where I can. Because the concept is so strong and Greg and Jon are such great guys, it was a no-brainer for me. We’ve cast Michael Chiklis, Julie Benz, Romany Malco and a whole bunch of really talented actors. David Semel, who directed the pilot for “Heroes,” among many other things, is our director and he’s doing an incredible job.”
