Jenji Kohan is developing a drama about Salem witches for HBO
The Jenji Kohan revival continues. On the heels of Orange Is The New Black’s critical success on Netflix, the Weeds creator has landed an as-yet-untitled drama series at HBO, set during the Salem witch trials. The 17th century is new ground for Kohan, whose previous series have all heavily referenced modern culture. But it does allow for the exploration of another group of women ostracized from the general population and dubiously punished for their actions.
