Academy Award-winner Halle Berry (Monster’s Ball, X-Men, Extant) and eight time Academy Award-nominee Glenn Close (The World According to Garp, The Big Chill, Dangerous Liaisons, Fatal Attraction) are joining the cast of Ryan Murphy’s legal drama, All’s Fair, at Hulu. They join the previously announced cast member Kim Kardashian.
The series will focus on an all-female law firm in Los Angeles. Exact details for Berry and Close’s characters are being kept under wraps. Both women will also serve as executive producers on All’s Fair, as will Kardashian. Close will produce under her Trillium Productions banner.
The role marks a return to television legal dramas for Close, who famously starred in the FX series Damages as notorious lawyer Patty Hewes. Close earned two of her three Emmy Awards as well as a Golden Globe for her work on the show.
Close is a 14-time Emmy nominee and won her other statuette for the TV movie Serving in Silence: The Margarethe Cammermeyer Story. She has also won Golden Globes for starring in the films The Lion in Winter and The Wife.
Murphy serves as writer, director, and executive producer on All’s Fair, the first series to be announced under his new overall deal with Disney following the end of his Netflix deal.
