The streaming service, UrbanflixTV, has tapped actor-director Kim Fields to executive produce and direct the new series “Vicious,” which hails from an all-female, Black producing team, Variety has learned exclusively.
A half-hour dramatic comedy, “Vicious” will follow a fashion designer, Chantel, whose success is overshadowed by her deep denial about the cycle of abuse she internally endures. With the assistance of her secret weapon, the publicist to her Vicious Empire, Chantel works to rise through the ranks, but her husband’s narcissistic behavior threatens to tear down the house she built.
The cast of “Vicious” will be announced closer to the series premiere.
Originally a short film digital series, “Vicious” was created by Jill E. Ramsey, CEO of Jilly Thunda Productions, and written by authors Amaleka McCall-Braithwaite and Tu-Shonda Whitaker. Ramsey will serve as showrunner and executive producer, alongside Fields, Tami Roman and Kimberly Ogletree, CEO of Karat Entertainment.
