The series, which originally ordered on Netflix in March 2020, comes from co-creators Robert Carlock and “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt” writer-executive producer Sam Means.

It is an opportunity to learn from humanity's past mistakes and do things right this time. Or make the same mistakes over and over again. Probably the second.
Stars: Daniel Radcliffe, Kevin Michael Richardson, Tina Fey
Netflix has given "Mulligan" a 20-episode order. Carlock and Means serve as executive producers and co-executive producers on the series, with Fey also serving as executive producer. David Miner, Eric Gurian, Scott Greenberg and Joel Kuwahara are also executive producers. The series is produced by Universal Television in association with Fey's Little Stranger Inc, Carlock's Bevel Gears, 3 Arts Entertainment and Bento Box Entertainment. Fey and Carlock are under blanket agreements at UTV.
The series marks the third that Fey and Carlock have established on Netflix. In addition to "Mulligan," the duo previously created the Emmy-nominated series "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt," which ran for four seasons and an interactive special. They are also executive producers of the comedy series "Girls5Eva," which ran for two seasons on Peacock but will move to Netflix for a third.
Nat Faxon is “Matty Mulligan”: A working-class Boston everyman, Matty single-handedly saved Earth from alien invasion, but now he's in way over his head as the leader of (what's left of) humanity. . The only thing he wants more than to be loved by everyone is to win Lucy over, but both will require him to really think about someone other than himself for once.
Chrissy Teigen as "Lucy Suwan": Lucy had a whirlwind affair with Matty during the attack, making her now the de facto First Lady. Except they just met and it turns out they have nothing in common. A beauty queen who believes deeply in the America you see in beer commercials, she wants to use her new influence to help fix the world, if she can figure out how.
Tina Fey is “Dr. Farrah Braun” – Dr. Braun is a super military scientist and single mom. She's still trying to "have it all" as a working mom, but she's still written off as just a "woman scientist" in a world that really shouldn't have time to worry about such things.
Sam Richardson as "Simon Prioleau": Simon is the only surviving historian and one of Matty's top advisers, though Matty thinks he's a useless nerd. Desperate to save what's left of human history before he disappears, he too is eager to take advantage of this new opportunity to reinvent himself as a confident, cool guy. However, he is not working. Nobody is buying the fedora.
Dana Carvey is "Senator Cartwright LaMarr": The self-proclaimed vice president, LaMarr is a political animal, schemer, and goofball who is eager to rebuild everything as it was, when guys like him were in power. He is forced to deal with both Matty's apathy and Lucy's empathy in order to rule the way he wants, but his power depends on Matty's popularity, so he must continue to support him. For now.
Phil LaMarr is "Axatrax": A worthy general, Axatrax is the only alien survivor of the invasion and is now a prisoner of the intellectually inferior humans who defeated him. Imprisoned in the White House bowling alley, he makes an unlikely "shoulder" to cry on for Matty, but it's possible he's just buying time until he can signal a second invasion.
