The series “Calabasas” has been acquired by Netflix, with executive producers including Kim Kardashian, Emma Roberts, and “Pretty Little Liars” creator I. Marlene King, according to Variety. The series is reportedly based on the book “If You Lived Here You’d Be Famous by Now” by Via Bleidner.

The upcoming series follows a sheltered 16-year-old Catholic schoolgirl who is navigating her way through unfamiliar territory when she transfers to Calabasas High. King will be writing the series and also serving as showrunner. Kardashian is serving as an executive producer alongside King and her partner Lauren Wagner through Long Lake Media. The project is currently in development at Netflix.
“Calabasas” marks a reunion for Kardashian and Roberts, who previously collaborated on Parts 1 and 2 of “American Horror Story: Delicate.”
As a resident of Calabasas herself, Kardashian is no stranger to the city, which has been featured in reality series such as “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” and Hulu’s “The Kardashians.” Apart from the “Calabasas” series, Netflix also acquired the Kardashian-led comedy “The Fifth Wheel” last year.
In addition to developing and executive producing the popular teenage drama series “Pretty Little Liars,” King has also written and executive produced the spin-off series “Ravenswood” and “PLL: The Perfectionists.” She currently serves as an executive producer on “PLL: Original Sin,” which is set to release its second season on May 8 on Max.
