Kim Kardashian and her ‘bestie for the restie’ La La Anthony’s comedy pilot Group Chat was just rejected by Hulu after nearly two years of development.
The TV series was based on the 46-year-old BMF actress’ 2014 book The Love Playbook: Rules for Love, Sex and Happiness.
Group Chat centered on five LA women in their 40s – played by Anthony, Yaya DaCosta, Rebecca Rittenhouse, Melanie Liburd and Stephanie Suganami – whose private group chat revealed the raw, messy reality beneath their polished facades.
Meanwhile, the 45-year-old reality star was set to executive produce and serve as narrator for the series with Anthony (born Alani Nicole Vázquez).
‘It’s going to be so fun and relatable – watching five women navigate life while leaning on their group chat for everything. I’m super excited,’ the former MTV TRL VJ said at PopViewers’ Vibes & Views event last June.
‘Kim and I had always wanted to do something together, but it had to be the right thing. One day I said, “You’ve got this deal at Hulu – what are we doing? Let’s sell this show.” That’s how Group Chat was born.’

Last Friday, Variety reported that Kardashian and Anthony will now team up to executive produce an untitled Tracy Oliver comedy series currently in development at the same streaming giant.
‘When the Bay Area’s most sought-after crisis manager for professional athletes finds her own life upended by her husband’s scandal, she turns to the three women who’ve been by her side through every version of her life,’ the logline read.
‘Together they navigate dating, ambition, motherhood and the glamorous mess of starting over.’

Kardashian recently wrapped her role as a ‘hot outsider’ in Eva Longoria’s upcoming Netflix ensemble comedy The Fifth Wheel about a Las Vegas weekend reunion for high school besties.
