Deadline reports that Laura Dern and Margaret Qualley are set to lead the new Netflix and A24 limited series called Forever, Interrupted, which is based on bestselling author Taylor Jenkins Reid’s 2013 debut novel.
In the series, “Elsie (Qualley) and Ben’s whirlwind romance is electric – within months they’re married and living happily ever after – when Ben’s unexpected death forces Elsie to come face to face with Susan (Dern), the mother-in-law who doesn’t know that she exists,” reads the logline. “Told through a dual timeline, the series recounts Elsie and Ben’s once-in-a-lifetime love, intercut with Elsie and Susan’s unexpected journey as their at first turbulent connection ultimately brings both women cathartic new beginnings.”
Forever, Interrupted will be written by Julia Bicknell.
