Steve Carell and Tina Fey reunite for Netflix's eight
Tina Fey and Steve Carell are set to reunite for Netflix's eight-episode comedy series The Four Seasons, in which they'll play a married couple for the second time.
The 53-year-old Mean Girls producer and the 61-year-old Office alum will begin production later this year on the remake of Alan Alda's critically-acclaimed 1981 feature directorial debut co-starring Carol Burnett, whose famous catchphrase was 'Are we having fun yet?'
The Four Seasons - featuring composer Antonio Vivaldi's four concerti - centers on three middle-class married couples taking seasonal vacations together (New York, Virgin Islands, Connecticut, and Vermont) and how their friendships and relationships change and evolve.
The $6.5M-budget film amassed $50.4M at the box office, received four Golden Globe Award nominations, and spawned a 13-episode CBS spin-off in 1984.
