It has been more than 40 years since we last saw Goldie Hawn as a television regular, and nearly a decade since her last movie project. But both of those facts will soon change.
Goldie, 65, is attached to a new comedy in development at HBO, from “Sex and the City” creator Darren Star.
“The Viagra Diaries,” based on the book by Barbara Rose Brooker, follows a woman (Hawn) who finds herself single for the first time in 35 years, after her husband has a delayed mid-life crisis. As the title insinuates, ‘Diaries’ focuses on the romantic and sexual foibles of the older set.
Originally envisioned for a film adaptation, HBO reportedly grabbed the project when producers signed Darren Star to write and executive produce the pilot.
Additionally, Hawn is said to have signed on to the project after “lengthy consideration.” Her last weekly TV gig was on “Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In,” from 1968 to 1970.
