Josh and Stephanie will executive produce through their Fake Empire production company, along with Chernin Entertainment. It will also be a co-production between CBS Studios and Paramount TV Studios.

According to Deadline, Sweet Valley is the town everyone dreams of growing up in. And there’s no better example of that promise than Elizabeth Wakefield. But when her missing twin sister Jessica miraculously returns, it reignites a lifelong rivalry. It falls to new girl Enid Ruiz to discover that someone (or something) is pulling all the strings, but can she convince the twins that putting their personal war aside is the only way to drag Sweet Valley’s dark roots into the California sunshine?

If you didn’t know, Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage are also executive producers on the Gossip Girl revival, as well as Nancy Drew, it’s upcoming spinoff Tom Swift and Dynasty at The CW.

Their other credits include Hart of Dixie, Looking For Alaska, Marvel’s Runaways, The Astronaut Wives Club, The Carrie Diaries and more!
