Sarah Michelle Gellar to star in Amazon coming-of-age comedy pilot Hot Pink

Deadline

Created by Elisabeth Holm, Hot Pink is loosely based on Elana K. Arnold’s National Book Award finalist What Girls Are Made Of, a 2017 novel exploring “the real, knotted, messy, thriving heartbeat of young womanhood” through the eyes of a 16-year-old girl. According to the book's description: "When Nina Faye was fourteen, her mother told her there was no such thing as unconditional love. Nina believed her. Now she'll do anything for the boy she loves, to prove she's worthy of him. But when he breaks up with her, Nina is lost. What is she if not a girlfriend? What is she made of? Broken-hearted, Nina tries to figure out what the conditions of love are."
