Life Sentence: We're Counting Down the Days Until Lucy Hale's New Show Premieres
Your weekly dose of Pretty Little Liars might be over - yes, we're still reeling from the reveal of A.D. and that full-circle ending, too - but luckily one of its stars is already heading back to TV with a new series! Lucy Hale is set to star in The CW's upcoming comedy, Life Sentence. The series is created by Fuller House producers Erin Cardillo and Richard Keith, and it's going to be awesome.
Thanks to the network's first-look trailer, there is one thing we know for sure: Hale is giving us life in her new show . . . even though it's technically about death. For those of you who haven't seen it, stop everything you're doing right now and watch it. Everyone who has seen it already, let's chat, because as you know this show is going to be a good one.
Hale plays Stella Abbott, a young girl who is dying from cancer, well, at least she was dying from cancer. According to the teaser, Stella gets news that she's actually cured - aka given a "life sentence," instead of the death sentence she thought she had.
Stella is surprisingly upbeat about the fact that she's terminally ill (for eight years). She gets married, jumps out of a plane, and even buys a "funeral cake." Living however, with all its uncertainties, seems like it's going to be a lot harder to handle. Luckily, Hale is the one playing the complex character. Judging by the trailer, she seems to be nailing the emotions that come with living like every day is your last (because technically it could've been), only to discover that you get to live.
Throughout the teaser, we see that Stella has been kept in the dark about a lot of things, because her loved ones want to keep her happy and give her the best shot of surviving, which is sweet. The bad news is that all their dirty laundry is now coming out, and in a hilarious fashion, we might add. Her husband (Elliot Knight) has been lying about his favorite movie, spoiler alert: it's not Love Actually - and holding in some bodily functions - while her parents have been living double lives. All of their secrets are going to come out when Life Sentence premieres, and Stella can't play the cancer card anymore . . . which, in all fairness, is a card she had rightfully been allowed to play for a long time.
Oh, and Stella is going to have to get a job, as a barista, in the age of hipsters and fancy coffee. What a wakeup call! The best part of the teaser is when Stella has to spell the name "Timothy" at the coffee shop ... it's Timothy with an "i" at the end. Who knew living without cancer could be so complicated?
Life Sentence is coming to The CW sometime in 2018.
