Kim Kardashian to play Laura Wasser-inspired lawyer in new drama series, Kris Jenner executive producing

Kim Kardashian is set to star in a scripted series.

The reality star, 43, will play L.A.’s “most successful divorce lawyer and the owner of an all-female law firm” in a legal drama, per Deadline.

The show is being written by “Brothers & Sisters” creator and playwright Jon Robin Baitz, executive produced by Ryan Murphy and will be streamed on Hulu, the current home of “The Kardashians.”

The role is reportedly based on famed divorce lawyer Laura Wasser who has represented numerous A-listers including Ryan Reynolds, Angelina Jolie, Britney Spears and Kevin Costner.

Wasser also repped Kardashian in her divorce from Kanye West.

Other executive producers on the series include the Skims founder herself and her momager, Kris Jenner.

Deals are reportedly still being ironed out, while preliminary casting has already begun for Kardashian’s law partners as well as for the “A-list actor to play her onscreen love interest.”

The series is set to start filming in late 2024 for an early 2025 premiere date.

Playing a lawyer shouldn’t be too much of a stretch for the mom of four who passed the “baby bar” exam in 2021 after three failed attempts.

Earlier this year, Kardashian shared that she would “absolutely” give up her reality TV career if it meant focusing on being a lawyer “full-time.”
