Annie Murphy Will Topline and Exec Produce “Witness Protection” Comedy

Murphy in "Kevin Can F**k Himself": Jojo Whilden

Annie Murphy’s set to lead her first feature. The Emmy-winning “Schitt’s Creek” breakout will topline and executive produce “Witness Protection” for MRC Film’s female-driven comedy label, Deadline reports.

The comedy tells the story of a woman “who has always defined herself by her romantic relationships, but when she is forced to enter witness protection, she must try to figure out who she really is for the first time while maintaining her cover and keeping the criminals at bay.”

Murphy currently stars in AMC’s “Kevin Can F**k Himself,” a dark comedy about a stereotypical sitcom wife who reclaims her life. She won an Emmy last year for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for her portrayal of Alexis Rose in “Schitt’s Creek.” The beloved comedy ran for six seasons. She wrote for, produced, and starred in “The Plateaus,” a 2015 CBC web series about a struggling indie band.
