Deadline

The former host of BET's The Rundown with Robin Thede is writing the project, with plans to star. According to Deadline, the untitled series is "inspired in part by her childhood growing up dirt poor in a trailer park. The show will explore how a difficult upbringing shaped Robin Sanders (Thede), a famous and successful financial advisor, and will vacillate between the character’s adulthood and childhood as it examines how your past always pops up in the present."
