Guts, glitter, glory... Are you ready to GLOW?
Inspired
by the short-lived but beloved show from the 80s,
GLOW tells the fictional story of Ruth Wilder (Alison
Brie), an out-of-work, struggling actress in 1980s
Los Angeles who finds one last chance for stardom
when she’s thrust into the glitter and spandex
world of women's wrestling. In addition to working
with 12 Hollywood misfits, Ruth also has to compete
with Debbie Eagan (Betty Gilpin), a former soap actress
who left the business to have a baby, only to be sucked
back into work when her picture perfect life turns
out not to be what it seems. At the wheel is Sam Sylvia
(Marc Maron), a washed-up, B-movie director who now
must lead this group of women on the journey to wrestling
super stardom. GLOW, now streaming on Netflix.
GLOW
is executive produced by Liz Flahive (Homeland, Nurse
Jackie), Carly Mensch (Orange is the New Black, Nurse
Jackie), Jenji Kohan (Orange is the New Black, Weeds)
and Tara Herrmann (Orange is the New Black).
