Netflix has dropped a first-look trailer at Schitt's Creek legend Dan Levy's new comedy series - and fans are already raving about it.
Dan, 42, who is best known for being the co-creator of Schitt's Creek and playing David Rose in the CBC sitcom, joins Taylor Ortega in new series Big Mistakes.
Created by the Emmy-award winning actor, the comedy is described as a 'family saga within a high-stakes crime thriller'.
The story follows two incapable siblings, Nicky and Morgan, who find themselves in over their heads when a misguided theft for their dying grandmother pulls them into the murky underworld of organised crime.
The siblings soon find themselves blackmailed into increasingly dangerous assignments, seeing them clumsily fail upwards and sink deeper into the chaos.
The first look trailer sees Dan and comedian Taylor, 36, in their roles as Nicky and Morgan for the first time.
Dan's Nicky is seen dressed in his pastor's clothing, preaching to the Church about being 'safe trusting in god', before he and his sister are pinned down at gunpoint.
'You stole from me, you're going to get it back,' the mystery gunman is heard saying, before Nicky tells Taylor’s Morgan: 'Get that necklace back right now.'
'It’s fully giving kidnap and homicide,' Morgan says as the gunman loads them into the back of a truck, as Nicky hits back: 'It’s giving? Those are your last words?'
'I’d like to be friends,' a crime boss tells them in another scene, instructing them: 'When the phone rings, you answer it.'
The duo are then seen being pulled into the criminal underworld, with a teaser at Nicky’s relationship with a dark-haired man in a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment.
After a montage of high-octane moments, including fights and guns being pulled out, Nicky concludes: ‘Do you think we’re going to die here?’ to which Morgan adds: ‘I think the chances are higher than they were before.’
Fans flooded the comments section under the trailer video, calling it 'wild' and 'hilarious' as they heaped praise on Dan's work.
One penned: 'I'm sold. That was hilarious,' as someone else chimed in: 'I was sold when I saw Dan Levy's face tbh. Looks good!'
Another agreed: 'This looks insanely wild and hilarious. After Schitt's Creek, I'll watch anything Dan Levy makes. It was easily one of my top 5 favourite shows of all time.'
A fourth wrote: 'It's so hard for my brain to separate Dan Levy from "David" but I will watch anyway,' as a fifth concluded: 'Got me excited!'
It comes after Dan and his father Eugene shared touching tributes to their Schitt's Creek co-star Catherine O'Hara following her death in January.
Dan expressed that O'Hara -- who starred as his eccentric mother Moira Rose on the show -- was 'family' both on and off the screen, after news broke that she passed away at age 71.
'What a gift to have gotten to dance in the warm glow of Catherine O'Hara's brilliance for all those years,' Dan wrote in an Instagram tribute, where he also shared two photos of them.
'Having spent over fifty years collaborating with my Dad, Catherine was extended family before she ever played my family. It's hard to imagine a world without her in it.'
'I will cherish every funny memory I was fortunate enough to make with her,' he added. Dan wrapped up his tribute sharing that he was thinking of her loved ones: 'My heart goes out to Bo, Matthew, Luke and every member of her big, beautiful family.'
Meanwhile Eugene, 79 -- who starred on Schitt's Creek as Moira's husband, Johnny Rose, and was a longtime friend and collaborator of O'Hara's -- told Daily Mail in a statement: 'Words seem inadequate to express the loss I feel today.'
'I had the honor of knowing and working with the great Catherine O'Hara for over fifty years. From our beginnings on the Second City stage, to SCTV, to the movies we did with Chris Guest, to our six glorious years on Schitt's Creek, I cherished our working relationship but most of all our friendship. And I will miss her.'
He added: 'My heart goes out to Bo, Matthew, Luke, and the entire O'Hara family.'
Annie Murphy, who played the daughter of O'Hara and Eugene's characters and the sister of Dan's, added her voice to the choir as well.
'Ha-ha-HAAAA?!?! Her laugh was a perpetual Yes, And...,' wrote Murphy, quoting the typical improv prompt. 'It challenged anyone who heard it to join in, and be as delighted as she was. Gosh, were we ever lucky to have her.'
She added that O'Hara 'would never have presumed to call herself a teacher (too self-deprecating, too Canadian) but holy f*, was I ever a student.'
Murphy then listed some of the lessons she had gleaned from observing O'Hara, such as: 'Giggles first. Jokes always. As long as they feel right in your bones.'
Others included: 'When you find the people you love and make you laugh, stick with your lovers and laughers,' as well as: 'Everybody on set is a part of the community who (ideally) wants to make something great - treat them as such.'
The fourth pearl of wisdom was: 'Make suggestions, even if it means overstepping sometimes. Acknowledge if it doesn't work. Be appreciative of those who appreciate it when it does.'
O'Hara left behind her husband of 30-plus years Bo Welch, and their sons Matthew, 32, and Luke, 29.
Eugene and O'Hara first met in 1974 as members of the Second City comedy troupe in Toronto, beginning a legendary 50-year creative partnership.
Running from 2015 to 2020, Schitt's Creek followed the once-rich Rose family as they rebuilt their lives in the town of Schitt's Creek, where they took over the Rosebud Motel.
The show also starred Annie Murphy as Alexis Rose, Moira’s daughter.
O’Hara won her second Emmy Award in 2020 for the role, after she’d previously won in 1982 for her role on SCTV Network.
The cast had their last public appearance at the 2024 Emmy Awards, where Dan and Eugene co-hosted the show.
After Schitt's Creek wrapped, Dan -- who co-created the series with his father Eugene -- told People he hoped the story might continue.
'My hope is that one day we can all get together. I see these people all the time. We're in constant contact with each other,' he said in 2022.
'So the love is there. The desire to work together is there, and the desire to tell more stories is there.'
'I think it just comes down to making sure that it's the right story to tell. And I think we're also proud of the work we did on Schitt's.
'And when you end on such a high, it really forces you to think very carefully about what the next step is.'
'Because whatever that is, is an extension of something that most people don't have, don't get to see in their life, and I really respect the audience in that thing.'
Big Mistakes will be available on Netflix from April 9
