John Stamos and Katelynn Tarver are set as the leads in ‘Open Book,’ Amazon Freevee’s half-hour scripted pilot, inspired by Jessica Simpson’s bestselling memoir, from Tom Kapinos, Patrick Moran’s PKM Productions and Amazon Studios
k, written by Kapinos, follows pop star Sadie Sparrow’s rise from ingenue to mogul, introducing us to the family, friends, and lovers she collects along the way. Touching on themes of love, friendship, family and sisterhood, relationships, soul connections, Hollywood and the music business, Sadie ultimately comes to embrace herself and the fact that her heart inevitably wants what it wants at every stage of life.
Tarver’s Sadie is a hot ‘of-the-moment pop star’ from a singing competition show, who seemingly, has it all – legs for days, glorious hair and a powerhouse voice. An adorable combo of sunshine and sin, Sadie Sparrow always maintained a “good girl” image on her rise to fame, but her wild side has begun to emerge as life in the spotlight becomes predictably messy.
Stamos plays Butch. Once a young and pretty singer-songwriter on top of the world, Butch Thorn went through one-too-many divorces and far too many drinks, eventually securing his own fall from grace. Despite his self-destructive tendencies, Butch still maintains a dangerous charm and his signature voice. He’s attracted to Sadie and the two make an immediate connection, which makes things awkward when he realizes she’s the young pop star he’s been tasked to write songs with.
Kapinos and Bernstein executive produce. Moran and PKM Productions executive produce with Amazon Studios. Jessica Simpson, Lauren Auslander and Lacy Lynch also executive produce.published by Dey Street Books, sold over half a million copies in 14 weeks in 121 countries. It was the highest grossing memoir from a female entertainment personality in history at its debut.
