Kerry Washington will star and produce the series “Imperfect Women,” a thriller based on Araminta Hall’s novel of the same name. The story follows three best friends whose lives are shattered after a crime is committed. A suspenseful drama that explores guilt and retribution, the book which came out in 2020, is a whodunit drama about love, betrayal and redemption.
No stranger to explosive dramas, she has starred in several films including “The Last King Of Scotland,” about Ugandan President Idi Amin and the 2004 biopic on musician Ray Charles “Ray,” which earned her an Image Award for Best Actress.
Washington, who is married to Nnamdi Asomugha, a Nigerian-American former NFL player, broke barriers in 2012 by becoming the first African-American woman to headline a network TV show for her portrayal of Olivia Pope in the drama series “Scandal.”
She recently played Omar Sy’s love interest in “Shadow Force,” a Netflix thriller about two assassins forced into hiding.
The eight-episode series of “Imperfect Women” which also stars Elisabeth Moss (“The Handmaid’s Tale”), will make its global debut on Apple TV on Wednesday, March 18.
