Steve Carell onboard Tina Fey's The Four Seasons adaptation for Netflix

Earlier, we reported that Tina Fey is all set to star, co-create and executive produce the upcoming Netflix series, The Four Seasons. The latest development is that Steve Carell has been added to the cast, and he will be reuniting with Fey after their 2010 film Date Night.

The series is based on the 1981 film of the same name, penned and helmed by Alan Alda. Fey is co-creating the adaptation with Lang Fisher and Tracey Wigfield. Universal TV is producing The Four Seasons. Alda, Marissa Bregman and Martin Bregman will serve as the producers.

The Four Seasons, which also stars Alda, follows three couples who take vacations together. How the dynamics of the group change when one couple splits and the man brings a woman much younger to him, forms the rest of the story. Carol Burnett, Len Cariou, Rita Moreno, Jack Weston, Sandy Dennis and Bess Armstrong formed the cast of the film. 

The Four Seasons series is set to begin production later this year. The series will feature Fey in a lead role in a series after 2013's 30 Rock. David Miner, Eric Gurian and Jeff Richmond will executive produce The Four Seasons series along with Fey, Fisher and Wigfield.
