Nicole Kidman’s long-in-the-works TV adaptation of Cecelia Ahern’s short story collection “Roar” has found a home — and will also count Cynthia Erivo, Alison Brie, and Merritt Wever among its stars. Variety confirms the half-hour anthology series, created and showrun by “GLOW’s” Liz Flahive and Carly Mensch, landed an eight-episode order at Apple. The project is described as “a series of darkly comic feminist fables.”

As previously reported, Kidman will executive produce with her Blossom Films partner Per Saari. Her “Big Little Lies” collaborator Bruna Papandrea will also EP, as will Flahive, Mensch, and Ahern. Endeavor Content is producing.

Kidman was last seen in “The Prom” and “The Undoing.” She received a Golden Globe nod for her leading role in the latter. Among the projects on the Oscar winner’s jam-packed slate is a series adaptation of Maria Sødahl’s blended-family drama “Hope.”

You can see Erivo next as Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin in the third installment of National Geographic’s anthology series, “Genius,” premiering March 21. Erivo earned two Oscar nominations for Harriet Tubman biopic “Harriet”: Best Actress for her starring role and Best Original Song for the film’s anthem “Stand Up.” The Emmy, Grammy, and Tony-winner’s other screen credits include “The Outsider” and “Widows.”

Brie worked with Flahive and Mensch on “GLOW,” in which she starred as struggling actress Ruth Wilder. The beloved women’s wrestling comedy was cancelled due to COVID before it could finish filming its fourth and final season. Brie scored two Golden Globe nods for her performance in the show. “Happiest Season” and “Promising Young Woman” are among her recent credits.

Wever starred as one half of a couple reuniting on a spontaneous cross-country road trip in short-lived HBO series “Run.” She received Emmys for her work in “Godless” and “Nurse Jackie” — the latter of which featured Flahive and Mensch as writer-producers. Wever’s résumé also includes projects such as “Unbelievable” and “Marriage Story.”
