Hulu is developing Rodham, a provocative take on one of the most famous female American politicians of the past two decades, Hillary Rodham Clinton. The drama series, based on the book by Curtis Sittenfeld, comes from The Affair co-creator Sarah Treem, Fox 21 Television Studios and studio-based the Littlefield Company.
Rodham imagines an alternative history where Hillary Rodham never marries Bill Clinton and asks what would have happened to her life and our country, if she had made a different choice. A modern parable about choices, feminism and why this country has such a complicated relationship to women in power… Rodham tells the story of an ambitious young woman, developing her extraordinary mind in the latter part of the 20th century, moving from idealism to cynicism and all the way back again.
