Christina Ricci (Yellowjackets, Wednesday) and Hamish Linklater (The New Adventures of Old Christine, Manhunt) have signed on to star in a new true crime series titled Chop Shop. The show is set against the funeral business in 1980s San Fernando Valley.

“Inspired by the Kathy Braidhill book of the same name, the series will chart the chilling and twisted tale of the Lamb Funeral Home in 1980s Los Angeles.

“When David Sconce — the Machiavellian scion of a Bible college football coach and a church organist — takes the reins of the family business, the seemingly All-American clan begins a jaw-dropping descent from saints to sinners.

“Desperate to keep their funeral home afloat, Sconce engineers a sinister new business strategy, replete with human body harvesting and mass cremation. The script will paint a harrowing portrait of hubris against the neon greed of the era, where insatiable ambition turns a former football star into a SoCal sociopath.”

Linklater will play David Sconce and Ricci is attached to play a journalist inspired by Braidhill. Andy Bellin (Lovelace) is writing.

Producers are Ricci, Laura Rister (The Tale, Ferrari) and Untitled Entertainment with the team currently exploring potential directors and showrunners to round out the package.

This sounds like a super interesting series! I used to work in Southern California funeral homes, and I just got done watching Six Feet Under, so I’m uniquely primed for this kind of content. Stay tuned for more info as the project develops and lands at a network or streamer.
