Kathryn Hahn to play Joan Rivers in new Showtime series
Kathryn Hahn will play the legendary comedian in a series about her mid-career revival

Though she didn’t end up getting an Emmy for her work on WandaVision (despite the fact that it was Agatha all along), Kathryn Han may have lined up another gig with some Emmy potential. According to Variety, she’s going to star in The Comeback Girl, a new limited series for Showtime about the mid-career revival of legendary comedian Joan Rivers. The series will be directed and executive produced by Greg Berlanti, the super-producer behind The CW’s Arrowverse and about 90 percent of all other shows on television, with Black List screenwriter Cosmo Carlson writing. Also, apparently Hahn and Berlanti went to Northwestern University together and have been wanting to find a project they could do together, so now we’re slightly disappointed that she chose this rather than starring in a new CW superhero show.
