Kylie Jenner to produce and star in new Hulu series

Kylie Jenner has landed her first major acting role in an upcoming Hulu thriller-drama titled Bachelorette Weekend. The 29-year-old reality star will play the lead character, a bride who is found dead in a pool during her bachelorette party, prompting an investigation into her closest friends who become primary suspects. The series will explore the events leading up to the tragedy through a narrative structure that slowly unravels the mystery behind the murder. The show is based on an unpublished novel by author Flora Collins, with a screenplay penned by Lauren Oliver.

The project originally reached Jenner's sister, Kim Kardashian, as a potential production opportunity. Kardashian recognized the role as a perfect fit for her younger sister and shared the script with her, leading Jenner to join the project as both a star and producer. Jenner, who recently appeared in Charli xcx's short film The Moment and has been increasingly active in Hollywood circles, will now follow in her sister's footsteps by expanding her professional focus into scripted television.
