Jenny Slate is set to star with Ari Graynor in an upcoming comedy pilot for FX. The story follows an honest look at the lives of two creative partners as they embark on a road trip. Slate will play Lou, with Graynor cast as Viv. The two women meet in their 30’s, and write a film together. The series will follow the characters exploring how to tackle their next project, and how to stay partners.
Slate is reuniting with Elisabeth Holm and Gillian Robespierre, who have previously written the indie hit Obvious Child, starring Slate. The two will be writing the pilot episode of the series.
Known for her breakout role in Obvious Child, Slate currently co-stars in the FX comedy Married, and is set to star alongside of Nick Kroll and Adam Scott in My Blind Brother.
Slate is repped by WME and 3 Arts Entertainment.
