The fictionalized series is spearheaded by Abi Jacobson, who co-created the women-led comedy series “Broad City.”
McCormack toldNovella, “I am an outspoken feminist.
I care about the representation issue in the industry.
I care about telling stories that represent women and casting and hiring people of colour.”
These talents have gone hand-in-hand since she got her start in theater.
“I’ve always wanted to be an actor,” she shared in an interview withNovella.
“I started my academic life of writing in university.
Producing I just love.
I love putting pieces together and making stuff happen.”
McCormack also has extensive experience working with delicate themes, including gender and politics.
“I think #MeToo just pushed us further,” she told Seventh Row in a 2021 interview.
“It made us go, “Okay, now people are finally talking about these themes.
So how do we make them talk at the front lines of it?”
“You get other perspectives, and they help you see it from a different direction.”
