Do you love the BRAVO scripted television show, Girlfriend’s Guide to Divorce, as much as I do? It’s one of the funniest and most emotionally moving shows out there. And, that’s why I was so excited to see the news that the show’s “executive producer Meryl Poster is developing two scripted series for Lifetime, The Power Playbook, based on La La Anthony’s bestseller, and the prescription drugs business-themed Molly. Both projects hail from Poster’s Superb Entertainment, which has the financial backing of Lifetime parent A+E Networks.” (via Deadline) Sounds incredible and I am so proud of my girl La La!
Here’s what Yahoo Sports had to say: “Based on the book by La La Anthony, The Power Playbook is an ensemble drama centering on a group of women who use sports strategies to help in both their personal and professional lives. Through incredible highs and devastating lows, they stick together through life’s twists and turns. Latifah and her business partner Shakim Compere will executive produce through their production company, Flavor Unit, alongside Poster, La La Anthony and Beber.”
“I’m beyond thrilled to be partnering with Meryl Poster, who I’ve admired as the ultimate power player for many years,” said Anthony. “The Power Playbook is the empowering guide to forging professional success, establishing financial independence, and finding balance for a truly satisfying life.”
According to Penguin and Random House, “The author of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Love Playbook, La La Anthony is again opening up her playbook to share her no-nonsense advice. La La is a self-made entrepreneur with a successful fashion line, a cosmetics company, a reality show, and a budding acting career to her credit.
