Krysten Ritter’s New Drama Pilot Is an Updated ‘Heathers’

Share:

Breaking Bad‘s Krysten Ritter has made her first sale as a producer to MTV. Cassandra French’s Finishing School For Boys is an adaptation of the Eric Garcia chick-lit satire novel of the same name. The author also wrote the script for the small screen drama, which is being described as another Heathers . The story centers on Cassie French who is a 20-something overachiever that has a dream job, but a lousy personal life. After her latest disappointing date with a true blue loser, she locks him up in her basement and trains him to become the perfect gentleman. It sounds like a quirky enough tale for Ritter to also star in, but Deadline doesn’t report any news concerning casting. Ritter will be appearing in ABC’s Don’t Trust the B—- in Apartment 23 (premiering April 11) as a con artist party girl living in New York City. Chime in below if you’ve read Cassandra French’s Finishing School For Boys. Does this fit with MTV’s current slate? Will you be tuning in?
