Witherspoon, whose rom-com credits include Sweet Home Alabama, Election, This Means War, Pleasantville, Home Again, and the Legally Blonde films, will star in two new romantic comedies titled Your Place or Mine and The Cactus.

“We have been looking for the right feature opportunities to collaborate with Ted Sarandos, Scott Stuber, and the entire team at Netflix for a while and we couldn’t be more excited to be working with them on these two romantic comedies,” Witherspoon said in a statement. “Both Sarah Haywood’s and Aline Brosh McKenna’s stories blend everything we love about traditional RomComs with strong, smart, and determined female leads.”

Your Place Or Mine centers on two long-distance best friends who change each other’s lives when one decides to pursue a lifelong dream and the other volunteers to keep an eye on the friend’s teenage son.

The Cactus is based on Haywood’s novel of the same name. It focuses on a woman’s unexpected pregnancy at 45 years old, causing her to rethink the structured life she has created for herself. She then goes on an unconventional journey toward love, family, and learning to embrace the unexpected.

Witherspoon will produce the projects through her Hello Sunshine company.

According to Variety, Fox 2000 has acquired the best-selling novel Where the Crawdads Sings and has tapped Witherspoon’s production company to produce a feature film adaptation.

Witherspoon herself is a big fan of the novel, selecting it for her book club. The book is Delia Owens’ debut novel and has been on the best-seller list for the past 12 weeks.

“With a jaw-dropping mystery, stunning Southern setting, and endlessly fascinating female heroine at its center, I loved this book the moment I read it and am so excited to join forces with Elizabeth and her team to bring Delia’s truly moving page-turner to the screen,” Witherspoon said in a statement.

“I knew and loved Delia’s writing so when I saw that Reese’s Book Club was recommending her new book, I started reading it right away. It is absolutely exquisite, so I immediately reached out to Reese and Lauren and said I wanted to bring it to life on film alongside them,” Elizabeth Gabler of Fox 2000 said in a statement. “We at Fox 2000 have an incredible synergy with Reese, Lauren, and their team at Hello Sunshine, and I am elated that we can once again be partners in the creation of yet another extraordinary film from an outstanding literary property.”

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the series tells the story of a loving and off-beat Iranian family, with a very big secret: they’re undocumented immigrants. According to the outlet, the half-hour comedy will serve as a window into the life of a Middle-Eastern household while exploring the universal truths that bond every type of “American” family.

Witherspoon will serve as executive produces on the single-camera series alongside Saedi who will pen the script and serve as exec producer for ABC Studios. Also producing for Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine is Lauren Levy Neustadter. 

This is the latest project for Witherspoons’ production company, Hello Sunshine, which has three straight-to-series projects in the works at Apple, Little Fires Everywhere for Hulu and Big Little Lies for HBO.

The company jointly announced with AT&T that they are launching a new Video On Demand, a subscription channel. The channel will serve as a platform for female talent, including an unscripted show starring Witherspoon herself. The series “celebrates the stories of extraordinary women who have created their own unique paths to success,” AT&T said in a press release.

“I am thrilled to have such like-minded, creative collaborators at AT&T to help Hello Sunshine pursue our mission of elevating and showcasing the voices of women that we have such admiration and respect for,” the Big Little Lies star said in a statement. “I am so excited for the world to experience the stories from our partnership with AT&T, which are set to be equal parts entertaining, inspiring, thought-provoking and unabashedly real.”

The unscripted series has been titled Shine On with Reese. The talk show hosted by Resse herself and the weekly episodes will feature guests like Dolly Parton, Pink, Cleo Wade and Elaine Welteroth, Candace Nelson, Sara Blakely, Glennon Doyle Abby Wambach and America Ferrara.

“Shine On with Reese is about experiencing with Reese the stories of exceptional artists, entrepreneurs, and leaders who happen to be women, and reveals how their personal journeys are unique yet relatable,” Charlotte Koh, head of digital media and programming at Hello Sunshine, said in a statement. “It epitomizes our goal of telling unexpected stories from interesting women’s perspectives.”
