La La Anthony and Kim Kardashian Team Up for New Tracy Oliver Comedy Series on Hulu
Hulu has decided not to move forward with the comedy pilot "Group Chat," which was based on La La Anthony's book "The Love Playbook: Rules for Love, Sex, and Happiness." The show, created by Kenya Barris and executive produced by Kim Kardashian, was initially announced in 2024 under Kardashian's first-look deal with 20th Television. The pilot starred La La Anthony and featured a cast including Yaya DaCosta, Melanie Liburd, Rebecca Rittenhouse, and Stephanie Suganami.
Despite the setback with "Group Chat," La La Anthony and Kim Kardashian are collaborating on a new untitled Tracy Oliver comedy series in development at Hulu. The show follows a crisis manager for professional athletes in the Bay Area whose life is turned upside down by her husband's scandal. With the support of her three close friends, they navigate dating, ambition, motherhood, and the challenges of starting over.
Tracy Oliver, known for writing the successful comedy film "Girls Trip," is the writer and executive producer of the upcoming Hulu series. She has also worked on projects like "The Blackening," "The Sun Is Also a Star," and "Little." Additionally, she developed the "The First Wives Club" TV series for BET+ and created the Amazon Prime Video series "Harlem."
Tracy Oliver is represented by CAA, Artists First, and Myman Greenspan, while Kim Kardashian is represented by WME. La La Anthony is represented by Linden Entertainment, WME, and Sloane Offer.
In conclusion, while "Group Chat" may not have been picked up by Hulu, the collaboration between La La Anthony, Kim Kardashian, and Tracy Oliver continues with an exciting new comedy series in the works. Stay tuned for more updates on this upcoming project.
