Biel and Banks will lead this thriller that explores the terrible things that drive sisters apart and ultimately bring them back together. After being estranged for years, Chloe (Biel) and Nicky (Banks) are forced to reunite in the wake of the tragic death of Chloe’s husband Adam, whose murder ends up unlocking long-buried secrets they’ve been avoiding facing.

Olivia Milch and Regina Corrado will serve as showrunners and executive producers of The Better Sister, and they’re looking forward to bringing it to life alongside the director Craig Gillespie.

“We are so grateful to Tomorrow Studios for supporting us as we’ve explored the world of this family… We couldn’t feel luckier to have Jessica and Elizabeth, who have awed us with their rich and layered work, as partners bringing these sisters and their secrets to life,” said the duo in a statement.

Jessica Biel made a successful transition to television in recent years and starred in USA Network’s The Sinner and Hulu’s Candy. As for Elizabeth Banks, we’ve seen her direct Charlie’s Angels and Co–ine Bear, in addition to starring in The Beanie Bubble and Call Jane.

Mrs. America tells the story of the conservative activist Phyllis Schlafly, who leads an unexpected fight against the Equal Rights Amendment movement. This promising project will explore “how one of the toughest battlegrounds in the culture wars of the ’70s helped give rise to the Moral Majority and forever shifted our political landscape.”

Banks will take on the role of Jill Ruckelshaus – a pro-choice, socially progressive Republican, appointed by President Ford to advance women’s rights and stop Schlafly and the religious right from taking over the Republican Party.

Mrs. America will show this era through the eyes of several noted second-wave feminists, including Gloria Steinem (Rose Byrne), Betty Friedan (Tracey Ullman) and Shirley Chisholm (Uzo Aduba). The star-studded cast also includes Sarah Paulson, James Marsden, and Melanie Lynskey.
