Jessica Rothe & Kelsey Asbille to Star in GASLIGHT Television Series

QCODE, a premium content studio and podcast network, announced TODAY that Jessica Rothe (HAPPY DEATH DAY), Kelsey Asbille (Yellowstone, Fargo), are set to star in GASLIGHT, a television series based on the hit QCODE podcast of the same name created by Miles Joris-Peyrafitte. Marc Rissmann (Game of Thrones, The Man in the High Castle) and Will Dalton (LOVING, SERGIO) will also star.

QCODE has partnered with New Regency as the studio, which will independently finance the project. This will be the second independent TV show New Regency is financing for QCODE, Automatik and Oddfellows. The first was The Edge Of Sleep, also based on a hit QCODE podcast series.

All episodes of the first season will be written and directed by Miles Joris-Peyrafitte, who is a series creator, executive producer, and writer. In 2016, Joris-Peyrafitte became one of the youngest winners at the Sundance Film Festival when AS YOU ARE won the Dramatic Special Jury Award. Shortly after, he directed DREAMLAND, starring Margot Robbie, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival to rave reviews and was released by Paramount Pictures. Miles Joris-Peyrafitte also directed the award-winning docu-short BRUJAS.

Executive Producers on GASLIGHT include Miles Joris-Peyrafitte, Chloe and Trevor Moretz, Emma Koskoff, New Regency, QCODE, Automatik and Oddfellows. Jessica Rothe and Kesley Asbille are co-executive producing.

GASLIGHT Premise: Everyone thought Danny (Rothe) had gone missing. Towards the end of senior year she vanished one night leaving everyone confused and devastated...including her closest friend in the world Becca (Asbille). GASLIGHT picks up years later when late one night while Becca, her new husband and their baby son are having dinner, they get a visitor. It's Danny. Inexplicably after all these years of no contact or explanation she's returned. She's looking to reconnect. As we learn more about her and her boyfriend Ben we soon come to realize there's something much darker and more sinister at play.
