Kathryn Hahn is attached to play Joan Rivers in an upcoming limited series in development at Showtime, according to a recent report from Variety.
The Comeback Girl is the awe-inspiring untold story of how Joan Rivers persevered through near suicide and professional abyss to rebuild herself and her career to become a global icon.”
