Jennifer Aniston is set to take on a dramatic new role as she stars in a forthcoming Apple TV+ series inspired by Jennette McCurdy's bestselling memoir I'm Glad My Mom Died. The 10-episode dramedy, announced by Apple, will see Aniston portray a character modelled after McCurdy's domineering and emotionally abusive mother.
The series, which has yet to receive an official title, will explore the complex and toxic dynamic between a teenage actress and her narcissistic mother. Apple described the show as centring on 'the codependent relationship between an 18-year-old actress in a hit kids' show, and her narcissistic mother who relishes her identity as "a starlet's mother".'
