Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin are teaming up again for a Netflix comedy called “Grace and Frankie.” The show has the creator of ‘Friends,’ Marta Kauffman on board- so you know it can’t be a complete failure. And judging by the other series coming out of Netflix (House of Cards, Orange is the New Black, Arrested Development), I can almost guarantee the show will be a hit.
“Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin are among the funniest and most formidable actresses ever and it’s an incredible privilege to give them the opportunity to run riot on Netflix,” said Netflix chief content officer Ted Sarandos.
On the topic of Netflix, David Ellison of Skydance added, “Netflix is redefining the way we produce and consume television and it’s a true privilege to be in business with Ted and his amazing team…working with the wonderfully talented Marta, Jane, Lily, Howard and their producer Paula Weinstein is a dream come true, and the story they have crafted is both hilarious and heartfelt.”
