Kim Kardashian is set to take on a new role in an upcoming TV show as a famous divorce attorney. According to sources, the character she will portray is based on the renowned celebrity divorce lawyer, Laura Wasser. Wasser is well-known in Los Angeles as the go-to attorney for A-listers navigating the complexities of divorce.
Key Takeaway
Kim Kardashian will be portraying a character inspired by celebrity divorce lawyer Laura Wasser in a new TV show for Hulu. The series, led by Ryan Murphy, is expected to be a “sexy adult procedural” exploring the world of high-profile divorces in Los Angeles.
Although Laura Wasser handled Kim’s own highly publicized divorce from Kanye West, her client list extends far beyond the Kardashian family. Some of the biggest names in Hollywood, including Kris Jenner, Ariana Grande, Ryan Reynolds, Angelina Jolie, Kevin Costner, Britney Spears, Heidi Klum, and Christina Aguilera, have sought her expertise in their own high-profile separations.
The new TV show, which is being led by Ryan Murphy and will air on Hulu, is described as a “sexy adult procedural” that delves into the career of a hot-shot lawyer working in Los Angeles. The series has received a significant commitment from the streaming platform, although the number of episodes has yet to be revealed.
In the show, Kim will be the head of a fictional all-female law firm. The script is being penned by Jon Robin Baitz and Joe Baken, with Murphy serving as an executive producer. Both Kim and her mother, Kris Jenner, were enthusiastic about the project from the start and were immediately on board during the pitch.
Considering that Hulu already airs “The Kardashians,” it comes as no surprise that they eagerly picked up this new show. Reportedly, they committed to a straight-to-series production in the initial pitch meeting. This move by Hulu can be seen as an effort to solidify their position as a prominent platform for Kim’s ventures, following her recent movie on Netflix where she also starred and produced.
Kim has recently collaborated with Ryan Murphy on the latest season of “American Horror Story,” which received positive reviews for her acting debut. With this new venture, her budding acting career continues to gain momentum.
