The first trailer for the series adaptation of Celeste Ng’s 2017 bestseller was released on Friday.

Little Fires Everywhere, which was created by Liz Tigelaar stars Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington. The story follows the intertwined fates of the picture-perfect Richardson family and an enigmatic mother and daughter who upend their lives. Witherspoon and Washington are also executive producers on the show. 

“We had been looking for a project to do with Kerry for a long time,” Witherspoon said at the Television Critics Association presentation on Friday. “When I read the book, it just had so many themes that were very complex and I knew whoever was going to be my partner… who was going to show up to do the work because it’s a lot of work. The first person who I thought was perfect was Kerry. She deepens the conversation and I knew I wanted to go on this journey with her. It just made sense that we were representing completely different kinds of women and different kinds of mothering but both with dignity and respect.”

Little Fires Everywhere debuts March 18 on Hulu.

Murphy’s upcoming Netflix music-oriented adaptation of the Tony-nominated Broadway musical has added Kerry Washington to its cast. 

She joins previously announced Meryl Streep, Nicole Kidman, Awkwafina, James Corden, Ariana Grande, Keegan-Michael Key, and Andrew Rannells. 

According to TVLine, the story centers on four-down-and-out Broadway actors — Streep, Kidman, Corden, and Rannells, who head to Indiana to help a gay teen whose prom was canceled when she tried to bring her girlfriend as her date.

Still no word on Washington’s character.

The clip was unveiled Sunday during the Emmys, giving the public its first look at the film, which has its premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival.

American Son stars Kerry Washington and Steven Pasquale, who will reprise their roles as an estranged couple who are looking for their missing 18-year-old son (the two appeared in the 2018 Broadway production).

Washington told Entertainment Weekly of her character: “This character is like the un-Olivia Pope. She’s about as different from Olivia Pope as you can possibly get, and I think that’s probably why I was drawn to her. She was such a huge challenge for me as an actress to spend seven or eight years playing somebody and then try to have the pendulum swing in the total opposite direction. She is not — there is no Prada in this one folks, sorry.”

Play director and Tony Award winner Kenny Leon also helms the film. 

American Son is set to premiere on November 1 on Netflix. Watch the trailer below.

The image shows Witherspoon and Washington in character for the forthcoming screen adaptation of Celeste Ng’s best-selling novel of the same name.

“At Hello Sunshine, we strive to shine a light on female-driven stories that are rooted in inspiration, emotion and truth – all of which form the bedrock of Celeste Ng’s ingenious work,” Witherspoon said when series was announced.

“Hulu has a rich history of transforming groundbreaking literature into groundbreaking television, and we are confident that their talented team will use this story to spur a long-overdue dialogue around race, class, and what it means to be a mother.

“With Kerry Washington, Liz Tigelaar and now Hulu, Hello Sunshine has brought together a dream lineup of creative collaborators, and we are privileged and humbled to have the opportunity to work with them to bring this important project to life,” Witherspoon added.

“We are so proud to be part of this team to tell this extraordinary story inspired by Celeste Ng’s phenomenal novel, and we are thrilled to be embarking on this journey with Hulu,” Washington said.

“As an actress, I am floored to have the opportunity to work alongside Reese Witherspoon exploring the rich themes of this story playing these dynamic characters.”

The cast also includes Rosemarie DeWitt and Joshua Jackson.
