Jennifer Aniston to Star in Apple TV+ Adaptation of Jennette McCurdy’s Memoir
Jennifer Aniston, known for her role in The Morning Show, is gearing up for her next project on Apple TV+. In a surprising turn, she is set to star in and produce a 10-episode dramedy called I’m Glad My Mom Died, based on Jennette McCurdy’s real-life story. McCurdy, a former child star, shares her journey of growing up in the public eye and dealing with a challenging relationship with her mother in her New York Times bestseller memoir.
The series, co-created and executive produced by McCurdy and Ari Katcher, promises a mix of drama and comedy as it delves into the complexities of McCurdy’s childhood. Despite the heavy subject matter, McCurdy’s memoir is said to have a unique blend of humor and candidness, offering a lighter touch to some intense moments. With production companies like Merman, LuckyChap, and Jerrod Carmichael on board, it’s clear that the show will navigate dark themes with a comedic twist.
Aniston’s casting as the mother in this adaptation adds another layer of intrigue to the project. As fans eagerly await The Morning Show Season 4, it’s exciting to see Aniston take on a role that promises to be a departure from her previous work. Stay tuned for more updates on this Apple TV+ series as it develops!
