Apple has set BAFTA and Emmy winner Dearbhla Walsh (“Bad Sisters,” “Fargo”), Kate Herron (“The Last of Us,” “Loki”) and Alice Seabright (“Sex Education,” “Chloe”) to direct “Margo’s Got Money Troubles,” reports Deadline.
The upcoming drama series comes from David E. Kelley and A24 and stars Elle Fanning, Michelle Pfeiffer and Nicole Kidman. Walsh will direct four of the eight episodes including the pilot and serve as an executive producer. Herron and Seabright will direct two episodes each.
Here’s how the upcoming series is described: Fanning stars as Margo Millet, the child of a Hooters waitress (Pfeiffer) and an ex-pro wrestler (Offerman), who becomes pregnant after a brief affair with an English professor at the local junior college she attends. Now, at twenty, Margo is alone with an infant, unemployed, and on the verge of eviction. When her estranged father, Jinx (Offerman), shows up on her doorstep and asks to move in with her, she agrees in exchange for help with childcare. Margo starts an OnlyFans as an experiment and soon finds herself adapting some of Jinx’s advice from the world of wrestling. Could this be the answer to all of Margo’s problems, or does internet fame come with too high a price?
