The Foster Sisters Add a Hulu Weather System
· New York time
These Summer Storms, a drama based on Sarah MacLean’s 2025 novel, is in development at Hulu, with Melanie Marnich and Erin and Sara Foster attached to the adaptation. Deadline reports that the project comes through 20th Television, where the Fosters’ Fatigue Sisters is based. Their Netflix comedy Nobody Wants This is launching its third season the same weekend. The new project extends the sisters’ work across platforms and from comedy into a novel-based drama. Development is the operative stage: an adaptation can attract recognizable creative names without yet being a finished series, much less a guaranteed multiseason fixture. In streaming, the distance from an announcement to a couch is measured in more than internet speed. For Hulu, a published novel supplies existing material and a recognizable title. For its creative team, adaptation means translating a book into the demands of television rather than simply giving every chapter a loading screen. The Fosters now have comedy arriving on one service and a drama taking shape at another. Their company name, Fatigue Sisters, is beginning to sound less like branding and more like a reasonably cautious assessment of the shared calendar.
