DTF St. Louis is an upcoming HBO dark comedy television miniseries starring David Harbour and Jason Bateman.
The series is about a love triangle between three adults experiencing middle-age malaise, that leads to one of them ending up dead. [1]
The seven-part series has Steven Conrad as the series writer, showrunner, executive producer, and director. It started development in 2022 with David Harbour and Pedro Pascal attached to star and executive produce and was originally inspired by the James Lasdun article in The New Yorker entitled My Dentist’s Murder Trial: Adultery, False Identities, and a Lethal Sedation. However, in October 2024 it was announced that Pascal was no longer involved and the creative direction of the series had evolved into a wholly original idea with no connection to the original article, with Jason Bateman involved on the project as an executive producer for Aggregate Films banner, and as part of the cast, alongside Harbour. Additional executive producers include James Lasdun, as well as Todd Black, Jason Blumenthal and Steve Tisch for Escape Artists, Molly Allen, Bruce Terris, and Michael Costigan for Aggregate Films, Kristina Wenson for Bravo Axolotl, and MGM Television.
