Actor Matthew Broderick has been roped in to star in Netflix's dramedy "Daybreak".
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the postapocalyptic 10-episode series is based on the graphic novel of the same name by Brian Ralph.
The story revolves around 17-year-old high school outcast Josh as he searches for his missing girlfriend Sam in postapocalyptic Glendale, California. Joined by a ragtag group of misfits including a pyromaniac 12-year-old, Angelica, and Josh's former high school bully, Wesley, now turned pacifist samurai Josh tries to stay alive among the horde of Mad Max-style gangs, zombie-like creatures called Ghoulies and everything else this brave new world throws at him.
Broderick will play Principal Burr.
Aron Eli Coleite has co-created the series and serves as showrunner. He is also serving as the executive producer alongside fellow co-creator Brad Peyton and his ASAP Entertainment partner, Jeff Fierson.
