Beck Bennett to star in ski resort comedy being developed at FX

FX is developing a half-hour comedy about an Aspen ski resort with former Saturday Night Live colleagues Beck Bennett, Anna Drezen and Paul Briganti.

Bennett is set to play a disgraced Olympic skier forced to save his family’s failing resort.

The character’s only real skill is skiing, making the task difficult.

The project comes from Lionsgate and Point Grey.

If the series moves forward, Drezen will serve as showrunner and Briganti will direct.

The three previously worked together on SNL sketches, including pre-taped pieces and commercial parodies.

The series is still in development, and FX declined to comment.
