After releasing The Fourth Door in October 2015, New Form Digital is set to continue its relationship with Verizon’s Go90 platform. The digital studio, known for working with online video stars to produce high-quality short films and series, has wrapped production on Replay, which will be its second show on Go90.
Replay will star Lyndsy Fonseca, best known for her roles in TV series like How I Met Your Mother, as Allison, a woman who continuously relives her 25th birthday. Joining Fonseca in the cast will be Tyler James Williams, Cyrina Fiallo, and YouTube star Mamrie Hart, whose respective characters will present Allison with important choices as she runs back her big day. To put it more bluntly, Replay is millennial Groundhog Day (or at least one version of it).
The co-creators of Replay are Kathleen Grace and Shawn Dempewolff. Grace, a former YouTube exec, doubles as New Form’s Chief Creative Officer; in that position, she has played a key role connecting New Form to the online video community. In Replay, for example, Hart will make her second appearance in a New Form production, after showing up in Oscar’s Hotel For Fantastical Creatures last year.

Replay is part of a six-program deal between New Form and Go90. When it was first announced in September 2015, it was known by the working title #DoOver.
New Form has not yet specified an exact release date for Replay, though a press release states the series will arrive “later in 2016.” To watch it, viewers will need to download Go90; Verizon’s mobile video platform is available from both the App Store and Google Play.
