Duck Dynasty‘s Sadie Robertson‘s fiction book, Life Just Got Real, will be developed into a scripted series.
“I really can’t believe my fiction book is about to come to life as a scripted series! feeling incredibly grateful,” Robertson, 23, wrote.
“As always ALL glory to God and I pray God would use this show as another way to encourage people in their everyday life and bring family and friends together ????.”
The story follows two teenage girls from incredibly different backgrounds who, after being cast on a reality TV show, realize “there is more to friendship than meets the eye.”
The series marks Robertson’s debut as a producer and in addition, she will also make guest appearances on the show.
