‘All Her Fault’ creator Megan Gallagher signs overall deal with Universal Global Television, adds first-look pact with Carnival Films

Deadline reports the writer-producer has signed with Universal Global Television (UGT), and that the agreement includes a first-look arrangement with Carnival Films, part of the Universal Studio Group structure formed from the merger of UCP and Universal International Productions.

2 min readEditor-approved Apex article

Megan Gallagher, the creator and showrunner behind the series All Her Fault, has signed an overall deal with Universal Global Television, expanding her relationship with the Universal Studio Group division, Deadline reported June 24.

According to Deadline, the pact also includes a first-look deal with Carnival Films. The agreement is designed to give UGT and its associated production partner an early opportunity to consider new projects from Gallagher and her team before they are shopped elsewhere.

Deadline described Gallagher as one of Universal Global Television’s more prolific creators and said the new deal formalizes that workflow under the Universal Studio Group banner. Universal Studio Group is reported to have been formed recently through the merger of UCP and Universal International Productions.

The announcement places Gallagher, whose credits include All Her Fault, into a long-term development and production relationship with a major television studio unit, aligning her next projects with a single internal production and development pathway. The specifics of the number of projects, the term length, and any financial terms were not detailed in the Deadline report.

Carnival Films is named in the report as the partner receiving the first-look arrangement, suggesting Gallagher’s future scripted or series development would first be reviewed by that collaboration channel. First-look terms typically govern early review and negotiation windows, with projects progressing only if the studio elects to move forward.

The new agreement arrives as Universal Global Television and Universal Studio Group consolidate development functions under a single structure. Deadline’s reporting frames the merger-centered reorganization as the foundation for the current dealmaking environment, with UGT functioning as the studio group unit where creators can sign overall agreements.

No additional information was provided in the Deadline item about production schedules, series renewals, or whether any specific announced projects are already in active production. As with most overall deals, the practical next step is continued development work and the studio’s ongoing evaluation of Gallagher-originated scripts and pitches under the first-look framework.

Why It Matters

  • The deal consolidates Gallagher’s future development pipeline under UGT and a first-look channel with Carnival Films, shaping how her next series projects are evaluated and potentially financed.
  • The Universal Studio Group merger structure described in the report suggests more centralized decision-making for development and production, which can affect turnaround times for creator pitches.
  • For the studio and its partner entities, an overall-and-first-look package can reduce search and contracting friction when new material is developed.
  • The absence of project-specific details means audiences will have to track subsequent studio announcements to learn whether any particular Gallagher ideas are immediately moving to production.
