Co-Created by Jacobson, the series also stars Chanté Adams, D’Arcy Carden, Roberta Colindrez, Gbemisola Ikumel, Kelly McCormack, Priscilla Delgado, and Nick Offerman. Jacobson is best known for co-creating and starring in the hit comedy series Broad City, which ran for five seasons on Comedy Central. She is also known for her voice acting work in film and television, including the Netflix series Disenchantment and the 2021 Sony Pictures Animation film The Mitchells vs. The Machines. On top of her work in film and television, Jacobson is also an accomplished author. In 2018, she published a book of personal essays and short stories titled I Might Regret This: Essays, Drawings, Vulnerabilities, and Other Stuff.
While the first teaser for A League of Their Own doesn’t offer too much in the way of plot details, it does give viewers a taste of what’s to come. Retelling the story as a series will likely give Jacobson and her co-writers more time to explore the characters, as well as issues and subjects that were less prevalent in the original film. It’s impossible to predict the plot of the series, but the trailer alone features a lot of very flirtatious looks between the characters, so hopefully, fans can expect a more inclusive and Queer-friendly version of the story. Happy Pride, everyone.
