Netflix has given a series order to female-driven dramedy Maid, inspired by Stephan Land’s New York Times best-selling memoir Maid: Hard Work, Low Pay, and a Mother’s Will to Survive, from writer Molly Smith Metzler, John Wells Productions, Margot Robbie’s LuckyChap Entertainment and Warner Bros. Television, where Wells is under a deal and where the project had been in development.
Written by Metzler, inspired by Land’s book, Maid will chronicle a single mother who turns to housekeeping to—barely—make ends meet as she battles against poverty, homelessness, and bureaucracy. Told primarily through her point of view, Maid will be a beautiful, alive, gritty, and inspiring exploration of poverty in America.
Metzler executive produces and also will serve as showrunner. John Wells and Erin Jontow executive produce with John Wells Productions, along with Robbie, Tom Ackerley and Brett Hedblom via LuckyChap Entertainment,...
