Hollywood star Reese Witherspoon will headline ‘All Stars’, a half-hour comedy series, for Prime Video.
According to PTI, the project was bagged by the streaming service in a bidding war. It comes from Aline Brosh McKenna, the writer of movies such as The Devil Wears Prada‘ and ’27 Dresses’.
‘All Stars’ follows a former cheerleader from Daytona Beach (Witherspoon) who cons her way across the pond to teach cheerleading at a school in coastal England and has to show a ragtag group of students — and herself — how to be ‘All Stars’.
The show is loosely inspired by Andrea Kulberg, a former University of Texas cheerleader who now owns a cheer school with her twin sister, Aly, in the UK.
Witherspoon’s production banner Hello Sunshine is also backing the series, with the company’s Lauren Neustadter serving as an executive producer.
McKenna is the creator and showrunner. Apart from directing the pilot and half of the episodes, she will also executive produce the series through her Lean Machine banner.
