FIFTH SEASON has secured international distribution rights to Recap, a psychological mystery thriller from K Period Media, ahead of this year’s LA Screenings. Created by Adam Glass, Andrew Dabb and Justin S. Lee, the independently financed series is executive produced and directed by Richard Shepard. Kimberly Steward and Alex Foster also executive produce.
The cast is led by Corey Stoll and Julia Stiles, alongside JD Pardo, Laya DeLeon Hayes and Cole Tristan Murphy. Guest stars include Jane Levy and Donal Logue. In the series, Morley and his family wake up every morning with no memory of the previous day, relying on video recaps to remember who they are. Living in isolation on a remote farm under strict survival rules, the family begins to question everything after a terrifying encounter disrupts their routine.

Kate Laffey, SVP Acquisitions at FIFTH SEASON, said: “From the acclaimed team at K Period Media and heralded by seasoned creatives from 'Supernatural' and 'Criminal Minds', 'Recap' is an elevated psychological thriller that we are delighted to present at LA Screenings this year. The series combines an intriguing premise with suspense-driven storytelling and mystery box appeal, anchored by standout performances from Corey Stoll and Julia Stiles.”

Kimberly Steward, Founder of K Period Media, commented: “K Period Media is committed to reimagining how independent television gets made — pairing creative freedom for showrunners with new models for bringing ambitious stories to audiences, and 'Recap' embodies that mission. We're incredibly excited to be working with FIFTH SEASON on this series and thrilled to share the extraordinary work of our cast and creators with the world."
Recap forms part of FIFTH SEASON’s scripted slate for LA Screenings, alongside The Blame, Treasure Island, Honey and The Night Manager Hong Kong.
