The movie is inspired by the popular reality TV franchise, The Real Housewives, and has been acquired by Apple Original Films in a highly competitive deal. Along with Lawrence, the project will be co-produced by Apple Studio and A24.
The Wives will be produced by Lawrence’s company, Excellent Cadaver, along with Justine Ciarrocchi. It will also be co-produced by Tony and Independent Spirit Award nominee Jeremy O. Harris and Josh Godfrey. The film will be written by Michael Breslin and Patrick Foley, known for their work on the Pulitzer Prize finalist play, Circle Jerk.
This exciting project marks another collaboration between Apple Studio and A24, following their successful partnership on the 2022 drama, Causeway, which also starred Lawrence. The two companies are also working together on other projects, including Spike Lee’s High and Low, starring Denzel Washington.
