"Kim is the world's best, most expensive divorce lawyer in the world," he said on the show, while pitching the series to the SKIMS founder. "When you're going through a divorce, I would imagine that you're very close to your lawyer and you tell them everything. It has what Sex and the City has, which is girlfriends. It has a bond of women trying to get through an experience together."

All's Fair , which will also star Niecy Nash-Beets, Teyana Taylor and Naomi Watts, is expected to start production in late 2024 and will premiere in early 2025 on Hulu.
