The new pact between the studio and Washington’s Simpson Street production company runs for three years. Simpson Street will develop TV projects for broadcast, cable and streaming — including a drama at Hulu based on Lillian Li’s novel Number One Chinese Restaurant.
The deal renewal comes on the heels of Washington earning four Emmy nominations Tuesday — for her lead role in Hulu’s Little Fires Everywhere and as an executive producer of outstanding limited series nominee, Netflix’s American Son (nominated for outstanding TV movie) and ABC’s Live in Front of a Studio Audience (up for outstanding variety special).
