The novel's author co-created the show.
Summary The Girls on the Bus follows four female journalists with various perspectives, levels of experience, and styles of reporting.
Amy Chozick: It was, as I told Greg Berlanti, a peak life experience, I have to say. I actually ended up meeting Warner Bros. executives, Susan Robner, Clancy Collins White, while I was still writing the book, and I told them about it, and they were just kind of instantly in. And then Greg Berlanti came on to produce it and he and Sarah Schechter identified this chapter, "The Girls on the Bus", and said, "We knew we didn't want to relive 2016. Nobody wants to see that again.
Julie Plec: Oh my gosh. Well, I wasn't there while she was there. But I am a very, very huge fan of hers and a good friend of hers. And I can say there's not a nicer, more responsible, more respectful, more passionate, more engaging, more kind actor on this planet. She is the real deal. She's everything that you wish for. So I will pass the torch to Rina to answer the second half of the question, but I can only imagine she was incredible.
Oh, that's such a smart detail. And then Rina, one of my favorite parts of the show, truly, is that this not only deals with very different political perspectives, but it shows how they truly affect people with reproductive rights. We see a little bit of a debate, but then it's like, "Okay, but this is impacting a real life.
Yeah, no, it feels very authentic and sincere, which is I think why it hits so well. And then Amy and Julie, can you talk to me about showing these four different women who have not only very different experiences in life and journalism, but very different perspectives on the world as a whole? And so we looked at Emma Gonzalez and said, "What would it look like if Emma Gonzalez, a few years later after being in the national spotlight and on the cover of Time Magazine and invited to the White House, then decided she wanted to hit the road and be a real journalist, but had no training, no schooling, and no credibility other than that she had more Instagram followers than the Washington Post?" So that was the heart of where Lola started as a character.
