Jason Bateman and David Harbour to Star in HBO’s New Limited Series ‘DTF St. Louis’
HBO has officially greenlit a provocative new limited series: DTF St. Louis, starring and executive produced by Jason Bateman and David Harbour. Set to deliver a darkly comedic take on love, midlife crisis, and chaos, the seven-episode series is helmed by visionary storyteller Steve Conrad (Patriot, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty).
If you’re an actor looking to land a role on a major network show, this is the kind of project that should be on your radar.
What Is ‘DTF St. Louis’ About?
The title DTF St. Louis nods to the notorious social media acronym “down to f*ck,” and reflects the show’s raw, irreverent tone. The series explores a middle-aged love triangle that spirals into emotional turbulence—and ultimately, murder.
Expect a blend of sharp writing, dark comedy, and poignant storytelling that pushes boundaries while diving deep into the human psyche.
A Project Years in the Making
This new series originated as a different project: My Dentist’s Murder Trial, a true-crime inspired show first developed by HBO over two years ago. Originally set to star Harbour and Pedro Pascal, it focused on a real-life murder case involving a New York dentist. However, DTF St. Louis has since evolved into a fully fictional narrative, retaining the same creative team but trading the courtroom for a more unconventional exploration of love and betrayal.
An All-Star Production Team
Behind the camera, DTF St. Louis is backed by a powerhouse team of producers:
- Steve Conrad (Creator, Writer, Director, EP)
- David Harbour, also starring
- Jason Bateman, Molly Allen, and Michael Costigan for Aggregate Films
- Todd Black, Jason Blumenthal, and Steve Tisch for Escape Artists
- Kristina Wenson for Bravo Axolotl
- James Lasdun, whose article inspired the original concept
- MGM Television as producing partner
This seasoned production team adds immense credibility and raises expectations for cinematic storytelling and high-caliber casting.
