Lili Reinhart and Tom Bateman are teaming up again for Olympus U, a three-episode immersive audio romance for Quinn, following their work together on Prime Video’s The Love Hypothesis.

The actors will narrate the Quinn Original, written by Kate Goldbeck, which offers a modern retelling of the Greek myth of Hades and Persephone. Reinhart voices Seph, an ambitious people-pleaser who enrols in Underworld Studies, while Bateman plays Hayden, the brooding graduate teaching assistant and son of Hades.

The story begins when a university gossip column portrays Seph as a sheltered good girl. She persuades Hayden to help change that image by pretending to be in a relationship with her. Their fake romance becomes complicated when they discover a mysterious connection that allows them to hear each other’s thoughts.

Quinn described Olympus U as a mythology-inspired romance featuring enemies-to-lovers and fake-dating elements. The project marks another collaboration between Reinhart and Bateman after The Love Hypothesis, which helped establish their on-screen romantic pairing.

Caroline Spiegel, founder and CEO of Quinn, said the chemistry between the actors made them a natural fit for the project. She also noted that The Love Hypothesis has connections to Reylo fan fiction, making the mythology-based concept a continuation of sorts of that dynamic.

Olympus U is the third Quinn Original duet production, following Ember & Ice, featuring Heated Rivalry stars Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie, and Rent Free, starring Off Campus actors Mika Abdalla and Stephen Kalyn.

The first two episodes of Olympus U are scheduled to premiere on the Quinn app at 6pm PT and 9pm ET on Wednesday.
