Deadline reports that Tessa Thompson is set to executive produce two big book adaptations — Who Fears Death and The Secret Lives of Church Ladies — under an HBO and HBO Max first-look deal with her new production company, Viva Maude. The Sylvie’s Love and Westworld star launched Viva Maude with a two-year deal with the WarnerMedia-owned cable network and streaming service right out of the gate. Thompson said of the deal in a statement to Deadline:
“I’m beyond thrilled to officially launch my production company, Viva Maude, which has been a real passion project and labour of love over the last few years. I’m elated to begin this partnership and to bring entertaining and impactful television projects to my friends and collaborators at HBO and HBO Max. Together we are committed to developing interesting and inclusive stories with inventive creators and to discover new voices and visionaries.”

“I haven’t reached out to anybody in the last week, but we talk about it all the time,” Allen said. “There is constantly a little flicker of a butane torch that we could reboot it with. Without giving too much away, a member of Alan [Rickman]’s Galaxy Quest family could step in and the idea would still work.”
