Disney’s Onyx Collective has ordered a new comedy series for Hulu called How to Die Alone – written, co-showrun and starring Natasha Rothwell.

What’s Happening:

How to Die Alone follows Melissa (Rothwell), a fat, Black neurotic who’s never been in love. After a comical brush with death, she refuses to settle for anything less than the life she wants, catapulting her on a journey to becoming “100% that bitch” in real life by any means necessary.
The eight-episode, half-hour comedy is a Hulu Original and comes from ABC Signature and Onyx Collective.
Natasha Rothwell (The White Lotus, Insecure) will star, write and co-showrun via her overall deal with ABC Signature and Onyx Collective under the banner of her company, Big Hattie Productions.
Natasha Rothwell and Vera Santamaria (PEN15) serve as co-showrunners and executive producers, while Desiree Akhavan (The Bisexual) serves as executive producer.
