Alafair Burke is joining forces with Amazon Prime Video for the adaptation of her novel The Better Sister, and this project is shaping up to be one star-studded affair. Jessica Biel and Elizabeth Banks will lead the cast of this thriller series and serve as its executive producers.

The Better Sister will tell the tale of two estranged sisters Chloe (Biel) and Nicky (Banks), whose lives went in completely different directions. After years spent apart, they’re forced to reunite after Chloe’s husband Adam is brutally murdered, and his sudden death ends up sending shockwaves through the family and forces them to face long-buried secrets.

Olivia Milch and Regina Corrado created this series for Amazon Prime Video, and serve as its showrunners and executive producers, while the acclaimed filmmaker Craig Gillespie is coming on board as a director.

Amazon MGM Studios’ head of television, Vernon Sanders, said they’re looking forward to seeing Biel and Banks bring these characters to life alongside the show’s talented creative team.

“Beyond being an enticing thriller full of twists and turns, The Better Sister is a gripping story about family feuds and forgiveness… The series is in the best hands to bring Alafair Burke’s original IP to life for our global Prime Video customers,” said Sanders in a statement.

There is something about the Stewarts…

Gone are the days when Charlie’s Angels worked in a small office where they were greeted each morning by Charlie’s omniscient voice and given their assignments by Bosley.

One Bosley.

Because it is now 2018 and the Townsend Agency has grown into a global security and intelligence agency — meaning just one Bosley (aka the name given to the liaisons who deal with the Angels) is not enough.

Elizabeth Banks, who is directing the new Charlie’s Angels — starring Kristen Stewart, Naomi Scott, and Ella Balinska as the kick-ass trio — will be doing double film duty by taking on the role of Bosley, but will now be supported by X-Men star, Patrick Stewart, as another such handler.

Kristen has previously said that the forthcoming version will be different from both the original TV series and 2000 film starring Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz, and Lucy Liu.

“The only reason to remake Charlie’s Angels was to do a super-woke version, with no objectification whatsoever,” the Twilight star told IndieWire.

In spite of their name, the new Charlie’s Angels will be grounded.

That’s according to one of the angels herself.

It was announced earlier this month that a reboot of the classic 1970’s show, about 3 private investigators and their disembodied voice of a boss, Charlie, would be helmed by Pitch Perfect 2 director, Elizabeth Banks, with Kristen Stewart, Naomi Scott, and Ella Balinksa starring as the famous trio.

Kristen has said of the film: “The re-imagining is so grounded and well-intentioned and really shows the way women can work together now. It tries to be warm and funny, but it lacks a kitsch element that we have seen before that works so well.”

The Twilight actress is currently amidst fight-training in preparation for the project which has no filming date as yet.

She also revealed that she has not yet met her fellow Angels but will be doing so very soon, and has been in constant contact with Elizabeth.

The 44-year-old will be pulling double duty on the film as she will also be starring as the Angel’s handler, Bosley.

We can’t wait to wish them all “good morning!”
