Elizabeth Olsen’s upcoming FX drama “Seven Sisters” has bagged a series order from Hulu.
The project has a star-studded cast, including Cristin Milioti, J. Smith-Cameron, Odessa Young, Zoë Winters, Meredith Hagner, Ryan Eggold, Anthony Edwards, Bridget Brown, Carolyn Kettig and Philip Ettinger.
The project is written by Will Arbery, directed by Sean Durkin, and produced by Garrett Basch.
“Seven Sisters”, from FX Productions, follows a large, tight-knit family that begins to unravel when one sister, Adrienne (Olsen), starts communicating with a voice no one else can hear, forcing them to confront long-buried secrets.
Olsen, Milioti, Hagner, Young, Winters, Brown and Kettig play the titular role of sisters. Ettinger plays their brother; Edwards and Smith-Cameron portray the octet’s parents; Eggold plays Adrienne’s husband.
The pilot has reunited Olsen and Durkin a decade-and-a-half after the award-winning 2011 movie “Martha Marcy May Marlene”, which was the actress’ debut project.

“We’ve been on the lookout for a compelling family drama, and when Will Arbery and Garrett Basch brought us ‘Seven Sisters’, we found one that felt uniquely FX,” said Gina Balian, President, FX Entertainment.
“It lives in the deep relatable dynamics of adult siblings and their parents but does so in a way that’s bold and original with an unexpected twist. This group of incredibly gifted actors brings this family’s secrets to life in a way that will draw audiences in and keep them guessing until the very end.”
“Seven Sisters” was one of two drama pilots that got the green signal from FX in March. The other, a “Snowfall” spinoff starring the original series’ Gail Bean and Isaiah John, was picked up to series last month.
