Bad Robot Is Making a Series Based on RuPaul's Life in the '80s
Bad Robot is making a dramedy based on the life of superstar drag queen RuPaul. Deadline reports the series will take place in the '80s and tell the story of RuPaul and how he rose through the ranks of the New York City scene to become a gay icon. That's definitely a story I would be interested in hearing! I can't even begin to imagine the life RuPaul led prior to being a celebrity, and I can't imagine it was all that easy.
RuPaul will serve as an executive producer to the series, which will be written by Power producer Gary Lennon. No release date has been set for the series, but it is currently being shopped to networks.
I'm sure this post will be met with some controversy. On that note here's a clip with RuPaul on WTF with Marc Maron that I think is listening to. It's a great way of showing you have an opinion and RuPaul doesn't give a shit about it!
