The first ladies are starting to line up.
Just in time for yesterday's grand opening, Showtime announced that Michelle pfeiffer joined the cast of his anthology drama The First Lady. She will play Betty ford, and is the first actor announced after Viola Davis, who plays Michelle obama.
Now you could say "What ?!" to that part of the news, which would be quite understandable given that Viola Davis was cast as Michelle Obama in February 2020. It's very, very hard to remember what happened in February 2020, since we have all lived for approximately a decade in the past year.
However, we will never complain that we get to enjoy good news twice, so bring this series stat. Hopefully the costume department is already working on a recreation of her stunning inaugural look.
