Fox Orders DOC to Series

Fox has ordered DOC, a new medical drama straight to series.

According to the network, “Based on the globally acclaimed Italian series, DOC — Nelle tue mani, which was created and is produced by Lux Vide, a Fremantle Company, and featured Simona Tabasco and Beatrice Grannò of The White Lotus, FOX’s DOC is a new medical drama centered on the hard-charging, brilliant Dr. Amy Elias, Chief of Internal and Family Medicine at Westside Hospital in Minneapolis. After a brain injury erases the last eight years of her life, Amy must navigate an unfamiliar world where she has no recollection of patients she’s treated, colleagues she’s crossed, the soulmate she divorced, the man she now loves and the tragedy that caused her to push everyone away. She can rely only on her estranged 17-year-old daughter, whom she remembers as a 9-year-old, and a handful of devoted friends, as she struggles to continue practicing medicine, despite having lost nearly a decade of knowledge and experience.” The series comes from Barbie Kligman, Hank Steinberg, and Erwin Stoff.

“This moving and heroic medical drama is the very definition of storytelling excellence and what audiences have come to expect from FOX,” said Michael Thorn, President of Scripted Programming, FOX Entertainment, in a statement. “DOC explores the raw emotion, redemption and resilience of the human spirit in ways we rarely see, and for that, we credit the creative leadership of Barbie, Hank and Erwin, who we know will bring this story to spectacular life, this extraordinary source material and our deeply valued partners at Sony.”

“We are thrilled with Barbie and Hank’s inspiring take on the emotionally captivating and globally acclaimed Italian series, and we couldn’t have a better partner in FOX to bring the format to the U.S.,” added Katherine Pope, President, Sony Pictures Television Studios.

The series will debut during the 2023-24 season.
