The Hollywood Reporter doesn’t mention what kind of spiritual awakening will cause Laura Dern’s character to wreak havoc as she seeks to live an enlightened life. Obviously they want to keep us guessing, so take a look below and then use our poll to make an educated guess:
HBO is being “Enlightened” by Laura Dern and Mike White.
The pay cable network is developing a single-camera comedy to be written by the “School of Rock” scribe and star Dern as a formerly self-destructive woman who, after having a spiritual awakening, becomes determined to live an enlightened life, creating havoc at home and work.
“There are so many dysfunctional types of characters populating cable television, and she is equally as dysfunctional as any of them,” White said, “but her impulse is to get healthy, to make the world a better place even though it creates havoc.”
The project stems from Dern’s standout performance as Katherine Harris in the 2008 HBO film “Recount,” which earned her a Golden Globe Award and Emmy nomination.
