For those who don’t know the name Paris Hilton, a brief introduction: Paris Hilton, born in 1981, belongs to the extremely wealthy family that owns the famous hotel chain (which she will one day inherit). With her extravagant appearance that showed off her own wealth, she quickly made headlines and also shook up show business.
She worked as a model, had a successful reality format on TV for a number of years with “The Simple Life” and tried her hand as an actress a few times (for example in the brutal horror film “House Of Wax”, see our article photo) and singer. She also built several brands… and recently published her biography “Paris: The Memoir” (published in Germany as “Paris: Mein Leben”).
And that brings us to the current news. Because ‘Paris: The Memoir’ is now being adapted as a fictionalized TV series. A corresponding six-digit option was purchased for this – from A24!
A24 is pushing even harder into series production – with Paris Hilton
And this should suddenly make the project really interesting for many film and series fans. Because In recent years, A24 has become the favorite of all cinephiles because they develop quirky, interesting and diverse projects. Films like ‘Ex Machina’, ‘Hereditary’, ‘Midsommar’, ‘The Black Diamond’, ‘Minari’ and ‘Men’ all come from A24. Above all, of course, the Oscar mega-success ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’ made headlines. The masterpiece ‘Past Lives’, currently in cinemas, also comes from the indie studio.
The studio’s series production, which has already produced numerous productions and is being expanded, is still somewhat in the shadows. They are involved in the much-discussed scandal series ‘Euphoria’ and recently made ‘Beef’ for Netflix. And now a series about Paris Hilton needs to be developed.
The series promises cool things
There should also be a lot to tell in the series – outside the glitter and party world for which Paris Hilton was known to the public for a long time. In her memoir, she made it so public that her continued rebellion as a teenager with ADHD one day led to her parents actually being kidnapped and sent to various special boarding schools, where she was physically and sexually abused.
A24 has engaged two strong partners for the series project. The actresses Elle And Dakota Fanning with their relatively young company Lewellen Pictures (“The big“) also on board as producers. It is not known whether they will also have roles in front of the camera.
Overall, there is no information yet on who will be creatively responsible for the series, i.e. script, direction, etc. That remains to be seen and then the question will naturally arise as to who will play Paris Hilton. The prominent entrepreneur and billionaire heiress is also involved as a producer. It is not yet known when and where the series will ultimately appear.
