Jennette McCurdy‘s troubled relationship with her now-late mother serves as the inspiration for an upcoming show — but what is there to know aside from Jennifer Aniston’s casting?

Jennette got her start as a child star in Nickelodeon’s iCarly, Sam & Cat, Zoey 101, True Jackson, VP and Victorious. She briefly transitioned to music and more adult roles before quitting acting altogether to pursue a career in writing and directing.

In 2022, Jennette released a memoir titled I’m Glad My Mom Died, which quickly became a bestseller for its candid depiction of Jennette’s childhood, which involved abusive behavior from her since-deceased mother.

“It’s something I mean sincerely,” Jennette told BuzzFeed News in August 2022 about the title of her book. “I’m genuinely glad. If she were alive, I’d still be trapped. Every important decision in my life wouldn’t have been possible.”

I’m Glad My Mom Died will also be adapted into a TV show of the same name. Keep scrolling for everything to know about the upcoming Apple TV+ series:

When Will ‘I’m Glad My Mom Died’ Be Released?

Apple TV+ greenlit a series order for I’m Glad My Mom Died in July 2025. The first season will consist of 10 episodes and is written, executive produced, and showrun by Jennette and Ari Katcher. Aniston, Sharon Horgan and Merman, LuckyChap, Jerrod Carmichael and Erica Kay will also serve as executive producers.

What Is the Show About?

Based on the synopsis, I’m Glad My Mom Died is “a heartbreaking and hilarious recounting of McCurdy’s struggles as a former child actor while dealing with her overbearing, domineering mother.” The dramedy will “center on the codependent relationship between an 18-year-old actress in a hit kid’s show, and her narcissistic mother who relishes in her identity as ‘a starlet’s mother.’”

Aniston is the only confirmed cast member, with I’m Glad My Mom Died marking her second lead role in a TV show since Friends came to an end in 2004. (Aniston also stars on Apple TV+’s hit series The Morning Show.) She will play Jennette’s mother onscreen.

What Has Jennette Said About Her Complicated Relationship With Her Late Mother?

“I’ve been so touched by how much the emotional thrust of the story has connected with people, which I see as being my relationship with my mom,” Jennette said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter after the book was released in 2022. “That’s an important and complicated relational dynamic to explore, and to see that people are responding to it has been amazing. And to see people responding to the humor of it and the aspect of exploring eating disorders and complicated grief, it’s really been incredible.”
