Emmy Rossum is in talks to star in a new drama series for Hulu that will be loosely based on the 1987 movie Black Widow. The series comes from New Girl creator Elizabeth Meriwether.
The series will follow “an FBI agent who uses secrets from a female serial killer’s past to try and find her.” Should Rossum sign on the dotted line, she would play the FBI agent. Meriwether serves as writer and executive producer. Rossum, along with Sara Moskowitz, will executive produce under her Composition 8 banner. Ron Bass, who wrote the screenplay for the original Black Widow movie, is also an executive producer.
The 1987 movie starred Theresa Russell as a woman who murders wealthy men for their money and Debra Winger as an agent with the Department of Justice who grows obsessed with bringing her to justice.
This marks a return to Hulu for Meriwether, as she previously created The Dropout for the streaming service. The series was based on the story of Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes and explores how the world’s youngest self-made female billionaire lost it all in the blink of an eye. Amanda Seyfried starred in the series and took home an Emmy and Golden Globe Award for her performance.
Rossum most recently starred alongside Tom Holland in The Crowded Room. The Apple TV+ series followed Danny Sullivan (Holland), a man who was arrested following his involvement in a shooting in New York City in 1979. A captivating thriller told through a series of interviews with curious interrogator Rya Goodwin (Amanda Seyfried), Danny’s life story unfolds, revealing elements of the mysterious past that shaped him and the twists and turns that will lead him to a life-altering revelation. Rossum also starred in Angelyne, a Peacock miniseries based on the true story of the blonde bombshell who rose to fame in the 1980s with billboard advertisements featuring her image.
