The untitled project, which will be executive produced by Lizzo, has been launched as a part of the singer’s first-look deal with the studio, which was announced in 2020, under which she will develop and produce TV series for the platform.
“Are you a full-figured dancer or model? Have you felt underrepresented and under appreciated? THEN I’M LOOKIN FOR YOU! It’s time to find my dream team of beautifully talented big grrrls,” she wrote on Instagram.
“Only the most talented dancers and models will have what it takes to twerk it out on tour and stomp it out on the runway,” the casting call stated.
