Apple TV+ continues to expand its original lineup and has announced a new series based on Jennette McCurdy's memoir "I'm Glad My Mom Died." Jennifer Aniston will star in the lead role and also produce the project. Described as a dramedy, the series explores the complex relationship between a young actress and her controlling mother.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since its launch in 2019, Apple TV+ has consistently focused on original content \u2013 with considerable success. Series such as "Ted Lasso," "The Morning Show," and "Bad Sisters" have received multiple awards. Now comes a new production based on one of the most discussed books of recent years. Jennette McCurdy's memoir caused a stir not only because of its provocative title, but also because of its candor in dealing with mental stress, control, and life as a child star. These very topics are now the focus of the new Apple TV+ series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What the series is about<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The series is based<\/a> on McCurdy's book of the same name, which spent over 80 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list. The story sheds light on the emotional and psychological strain McCurdy experienced as a child actress under her domineering mother. The series fictionalizes this relationship: It centers on an 18-year-old actress who stars in a successful children's series and suffers under the control of her narcissistic mother. The mother, who basks in her role as "mom of a star," is played by Jennifer Aniston. It is a ten-part dramedy series. The script, production, and direction are by Jennette McCurdy herself and Ari Katcher, known from series such as "Ramy" and the "Jerrod Carmichael Reality Show."<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Star-studded production team with strong Apple TV+ connection<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Jennifer Aniston is not only a star, but also an executive producer through her company Echo Films. Also producing are Sharon Horgan and Stacy Greenberg for Merman, who already had success on Apple TV+ with the series "Bad Sisters." Other producers are Dani Gorin, Tom Ackerley and Josey McNamara for LuckyChap, as well as Jerrod Carmichael and Erica Kay, who have worked on "Fosse\/Verdon," "Pose" and "Dead Ringers," among others. The new series is part of an expanded collaboration between Apple TV+ and Jennifer Aniston. The actress has starred in the Apple Original series "The Morning Show" since 2019, which won an Emmy, a SAG Award and a Critics' Choice Award. The series' fourth season premieres<\/a> on September 17th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
