‘La La Land’ Star to Join Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington in Hulu's ‘Little Fires Everywhere’

Someone call the fire department, because the cast ofLittle Fires Everywhereis too hot to handle.

According toDeadline, Rosemarie DeWitt ofLa La土地andBlack Mirrorjoins executive producers and leading ladies Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington for the Hulu adaptation of Celese Ng’s bestselling novel,Little Fires Everywhere.

DeWitt, who starred opposite Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling as Gosling’s character’s sister inLa La土地and as Midge Daniels inMad Men, will play the role of Linda McCullough, Elena’s (Witherspoon) best friend.

Washington will play Mia, a mother who upends the picture-perfect lives of Elena’s family while a custody battle over Linda’s adopted Chinese-American daughter erupts in the small Ohio town. Sounds likeDesperate HousewivesmeetsSharp Objects, aka the combo of our dreams.

Similar toBig Little Lies, the adaptation of李ttle Fires Everywhereis going to be a limited series (for now…).Witherspoonbought the rights to her book-club pick and will executive produce the series via her Hello Sunshine production company along withWashington, under her company Simpson Street. Liz Tigelaar (Casual) is penning the script and will serve as showrunner.

There’s no release date yet, but we do know production has already begun for the show…meaning our time to finish the novel is already flying by.
