Chelsea Bradshaw & Jessica Pugh Launch Featherweight Pictures With Projects From Gal Gadot, Adele Lim & More

Deadline mentions that Lauren Bishow will serve as counsel to Featherweight Pictures, a new production company founded by Chelsea Bradshaw and Jessica Pugh. The duo previously led Sue Kroll’s Kroll & Co. during its tenure with Amazon MGM and now aim to continue championing female-driven stories through Featherweight. The company is off to a strong start, with plans to develop and produce adaptations of two New York Times bestsellers: The Expiration Dates, which will star Emma Stone as a feature film, and The Hotel Nantucket, which is being adapted for television. Bradshaw and Pugh are also bringing over projects from their time at Kroll & Co., including a film adaptation of Follow Me by Elizabeth Rose Quinn, to be written and directed by Adele Lim, and The Untitled Lisa Howard Project, which will be coproduced with Gal Gadot.
