Getting ready to GLOW in June on Netflix | Miami Herald

The series premiere of “GLOW,” the new Netflix comedy, is Friday, June 23 starring Alison Brie (“Community,” “Mad Men”), Betty Gilpin (“Nurse Jackie”) and comedian/author Marc Maron.

GLOW is the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling, inspired by the short-lived but beloved show from the 1980s.

GLOW tells the fictional story of Ruth Wilder (Brie), an out-of-work, struggling actress in 1980s Los Angeles who finds one last chance for stardom when she’s thrust into the glitter and spandex world of women’s wrestling. In addition to working with 12 Hollywood misfits, Ruth also has to compete with Debbie Eagan (Betty Gilpin) a former soap actress who left the business to have a baby, only to be sucked back into work when her picture perfect life is not what it seems. And at the wheel is Sam Sylvia (Marc Maron), a washed-up, B-movie director who now must lead this group of women on the journey to wrestling stardom.

GLOW is created by Liz Flahive (Homeland, Nurse Jackie) and Carly Mensch (Nurse Jackie, Orange Is The New Black, Weeds). Orange Is the New Black creator Jenji Kohan and Tara Herrmann are executive producers alongside Flahive and Mensch who are serving as showrunners
