After starring in season 12 of “American Horror Story”, Kim Kardashian is making more moves as an actress. She will continue to work with AHS co-creator Ryan Murphy, this time in a procedural.
The legal drama has been ordered to series at Hulu – which also airs reality series “The Kardashians” – and will see Kardashian play a successful divorce attorney who runs an all-female law firm in Los Angeles. Jon Robin Baitz, the showrunner of the upcoming Truman Capote-focused season of Murphy’s “Feud”, will pen the series alongside Joseph Baken, a writer on “AHS” spin-off “American Horror Stories”.
Aside from “Feud: Capote vs. The Swans,” Baitz is best known for creating “Brothers & Sisters,” which ran for five seasons on ABC from 2006 to 2011, and developing NBC’s “The Slap,” based on the Australian series of the same name. Other writing credits include episodes of The West Wing and Alias, as well as the 2015 film Stonewall. Baken wrote two episodes of American Horror Stories Season 3, which aired in October. He also wrote and directed the 2021 film Mailman.
Kardashian is also working on a comedy called ‘The Fifth Wheel’, in which she plays the outsider in a group of four other female friends. The film landed at Netflix in November after a competitive bidding war.
The Kardashian-led Hulu series will be Murphy’s first new Disney project since she signed an overall deal with the company in June after exiting her Netflix deal.
