Ariana Madix is attached to star in Peacock’s upcoming drama series “Future Housewives,” a sci-fi satire centered on reality-TV tropes. Multiple outlets report the project is in development at the streaming service and will feature Madix in the lead role.
The series is described as set on an asteroid colony known as “New Beverly Hills,” where wealthy socialites navigate life shaped by bioengineered beauty regimens, intense personal rivalries, and interplanetary scandals. Deadline, Variety, TVLine, and The Hollywood Reporter all describe the show’s meta framing, drawing on Madix’s transition from reality television to scripted acting.
Production details across outlets emphasize the involvement of Brannon Braga and Seth MacFarlane, with Braga identified as an “Star Trek” and “The Orville” alum and MacFarlane’s Fuzzy Door Productions credited on the project. While coverage largely aligns on the premise and creative team, outlets vary in emphasis—some highlight the reality-TV parody angle more directly, while others focus on Madix’s career crossover and the show’s development status at Peacock.
