Netflix is producing a new drama inspired by Hillary Clinton's failed 2016 run for US president.
The series will be based on a chapter of Chasing Hillary, a memoir by Amy Chozick who covered the election as a reporter for the New York Times.
Entitled Girls on the Bus, it will follow four female journalists trailing fictional presidential candidates.
"This is the most exciting thing that has ever happened to me," Ms Chozick said.
Netflix won the rights to the journalist's book after a fierce bidding war. The company said it would "follow the every move of a parade of flawed presidential candidates, finding friendship, love, and a scandal that could take down not just the presidency but our entire democracy along the way".
Chasing Hillary was described by New York Magazine as "a kind of Bridget Jones's Diary meets What it Takes, coming-of-age rom-com set on the campaign trail".
Along with Julie Plec, the executive producer behind The Vampire Diaries, Ms Chozick will write and act as an executive producer on Girls on the Bus.
The series' name is a reworking of The Boys on the Bus, a 1972 book about the male press pack who covered the 1972 US presidential election.

Everyone has a Streaming service these days and most are cheaper and with Netflix jumping left off the planet ,better
Girls on the Bus.
The series’ name is a reworking of The Boys on the Bus, a
1972 book about the male press pack who covered the 1972
US presidential election.
So glad we dumped our free Netflix before all this liberal agenda stuff. There wasn’t anything worth watching. Bunch of never heard of movies, cartoons and an over the top amount of sicko LGBT hooey.
Hey Freepers, how about suggestions for an alternate title to ‘Girls On The Bus’? :)
—
Flop
‘Just Throw Her On The Bus’
Alternate title: A Sack of Potatoes Runs for President. Probably not fair to sacks of potatoes.
With a happy ending.
Will they show her ordering the murder of Seth Rich and John Ashe (killed by barbell a few days before testifying against the clintons)?
Does Netflix have a $1.00 discount table for films that suck like Walmart’s $1.00 “They will never sell” stack?
Here’s my title: “Hillary Rodham Clinton: A Woman So Brilliant, She Lost An Election That Was Rigged In Her Favor”.
“What Difference Does it Make? She Still Lost”
“This is the most exciting thing that has ever happened to me,” Ms Chozick said.
And the most boring thing that happened to Netflix watchers.
Doesn’t this violate the constitutional torture prohibitions?
That last one was supposed to be arkanacide the finer points of numbers
LOL
“Netflix to produce series inspired by Hillary Clinton’s presidential run”
I thought HBO already did that with “House of Cards”, though THEIR fictional “Hillary” became President ...
Just what kind of mental midget watches suck crapola?
