FRIENDS.FEAR FOR JEN

HER NEW ROLE HITS CLOSE TO HOME

- 

Jennifer Aniston's next TV project has her nearest and dearest worried she's stepping into dangerous, all-too-familiar territory.

It's been announced the actress will be starring in an adaptation of former child star Jennette McCurdy's controversially titled memoir, I'm Glad My Mom Died. Margot Robbie is producing the 10-episode series for AppleTV+, with Jen, 56, signing on to play Jennette's late mother, Debra, who the author says was abusive and narcissistic. Given Jen's family history and the complicated relationship she had with her own late mother, Nancy Dow, insiders say many are wondering if this is the best move for Jen – even if the baity role is already generating Emmy buzz.
