EXCLUSIVE: Breakout creator Davide De Pierro is getting into business with Susan Rovner‘s AHA Studios and Ted Gold Productions.
De Pierro has closed a development deal for an as-yet untitled comedy series based on his “funny and relatable observations about life and love” in which he will star and co-write.
Andy Gordon (The Big Bang Theory, Modern Family) and Maria Ferrari (The Big Bang Theory, United States of Al, Young Sheldon) will write the series with De Pierro. Rovner and Gold will executive produce.
De Pierro, known as Davi, is a breakout creator who explores the complexities of relationships, mental health, and personal growth. With a unique blend of Italian and Jersey influences, Davi shares insights and advice through empowering content and a live touring show addressing topics like dating, family dynamics, financial freedom, and how to be a man in the modern world.

The tour has been praised for his candid reflections on relationships and the everyday moments that define the human experience, delivered with a one-of-a-kind perspective and sharp humor.
