Now that Carrie Brownstein has wrapped shooting on her hilarious hit series Portlandia, she is looking to her earlier life for her next television project.
Hollywood Reporter have announced that Brownstein has signed to Hulu for a series based on her memoir Hunger Makes Me a Modern Girl.
The show is said to be “loosely inspired by her memoir as well as her experiences as a young musician growing up in the Pacific Northwest during the underground feminist punk-rock movement in the 1990s.”
It will be a comedy “about a young woman, a band and a community learning how to be unafraid of their own noise.”
As the book’s press release explained at the time of release, “Brownstein chronicles the excitement and contradictions within the era’s flourishing and fiercely independent music subculture, including experiences that sowed the seeds for the observational satire of the popular television series Portlandia years later.”
So far, no release date has been set. Portlandia‘s final season starts this week.
