Emma Roberts to Star in BRIDE WARS Reimagination For TV at Peacock
Actress Emma Roberts (American Horror Story, Valentine’s Day) is set to star in and executive produce a TV series reimagining of the 2009 movie Bride Wars.
Set against the charming backdrop of North Carolina, Bride Wars, the TV series, follows a big-city wedding planner (Emma Roberts) whose arrival in a small town sparks an epic showdown with a beloved local planner.
As the two women battle to plan the same wedding, their rivalry quickly escalates into a larger clash over friendship, community, and, ultimately, love.
The original Bride Wars movie starred Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway as longtime besties Liv and Emma, respectively, whose weddings accidentally end up booked for the same day at the same venue, The Plaza Hotel in New York City. Drama, chaos and confusion abounds.
The women fight over who should keep the date and which should sacrifice for the other. In the film, they struggle between being a true friend and losing their buddy forever.
Roberts is currently in production on the feature film Hal opposite Alexander Ludwig and also serves as an executive producer on the hit Hulu series Tell Me Lies, which recently concluded its 3-season run.
