This eventually resulted in an idea for a script, where she becomes friends with the doll. In reality, Dan never had sex with the doll, and when she and Dan got engaged and started living together, he got rid of the doll. Anna Kendrick (Love Life (2020)) will portray the lead character, and Meredith Hagner (Search Party (2016)) will voice the doll. The series is set to premiere on the 20th of April instead of on the 27th of April. Quibi, which has just launched, focuses on shorter episodes that were created by a professional team.

Dummy revolves around a young woman who learns to live with her insecurities, both personally and professionally. Aspiring writer Cody (Kendrick) finds the sex doll, which is called Barbara, of her boyfriend (Donal Logue, Gotham). Cody is the only one who can hear her speak. The sex doll convinces her to take her home so that she can help cure Cody's writer's block.
