The subject of our favorite Instagram videos and memes, Joanne the Scammer, portrayed by Branden Miller, is slated to bring her messy-bitchness to TV, courtesy of producers Super Deluxe and Chelsea Peretti, wife of Jordan Peele.
Shadow and Act reports that Parks and Recreation writer and actor Joe Mande is also on board to write.
Though there is no network home yet, Miller dropped hints about the content of the show in a podcast earlier this summer: “All I know is we start off with her being married to this rich, white older guy ... or maybe he’s not even older. And he drops her, so she’s trying to get to that place again of being Caucasian—whatever she thinks that is. Instagram gives you one minute of that, the show will give you the whole storyline.”
Miller—who was adopted and raised to think he was Caucasian—can prolly relate.
