From Mark Burnett and Roma Downey, "Faust" is described as a "faith-based medical procedural and a contemporary take on the popular tale about a scholar who sells his soul to the Devil for ultimate knowledge, which will explore questions of faith and the supernatural in a grounded, realistic way."
Aguirre-Sacasa will executive produce the project with Burnett and Downey of LightWorkers Media.
Aguirre-Sacasa is also developing the Fox drama "Riverdale," which is based on the characters from the Archie comics.
