Facebook picks up half-hour dramedy series starring Elizabeth Olsen

as mentioned in Facebook isn't 1 to be outdone with Apple's recent large content spending: It's purchasing a 10-episode, straight-to-series half-hour drama-comedy series produced and starring Elizabeth Olsen. The produce too includes Lizzy Weiss on board as showrunner, Kit Steinkellner as innovator and lead writer and Master of None's James Ponsoldt as a directly and executive maker for a number of episodes. Deadline reports that the series, previously titled Widow, is 1 of the premier of a series of planned acquisitions Facebook is doing to flesh out Facebook Watch with premium original content. Olsen, who going to feature prominently in this summer's upcoming Avengers: Infinity War, is obviously a high-profile get for the fledgling initiative at the social network.

Elizabeth Olsen to star in a review on Facebook

In October, it reported Kerry Washington's Chicago-set drama 5 Points, and earlier this year it ordered a coming-of-age fairy tale review from big-time movie produce studio Blumhouse about a girl with no hands. Now, The Hollywood Reporter tells which Facebook Watch has given a straight-to-series order to an untitled "female-driven dramedy" starring Elizabeth Olsen. The review was created and written with Z: The Beginning Of Everything's Kit Steinkellner, with Lizzy Weiss (the innovator of The CW's Switched At Birth) acting as showrunner. We have no idea what the review going to be about, as The Hollywood Reporter doesn't even offer any clues. Olsen tells the review is "dark, funny, and complicated," however which description can cover virtually anything.
