Jena Friedman Is Set to Write and Direct Her First Feature “Serial Dater”
Comedy multi-hyphenate Jena Friedman is both a crucial voice in comedy and in today’s cultural landscape. Through her stand-up, work on The Daily Show, and way more, Jena has carved out a great niche for her dark, outspoken comedy.
Now, she’s on to making her first feature length film as a writer-director with a stellar cast of Imogen Poots and Timothy Simons. Called Serial Dater, the film will focus on a forensic pathologist who suspects she might be dating a serial killer.
By the way, Jena’s excellent web series that she wrote and directed, Ted and Gracie, is a great quasi-preview of what might come of this project.
