Kim Kardashian is adding a splash of excitement among her castmates on the set of “All’s Fair,” a new legal drama set to debut on Hulu on November 4. The star-studded ensemble includes acting heavyweights like Glenn Close, Niecy Nash-Betts, Naomi Watts, Sarah Paulson, and Teyana Taylor. They were recently on location in Los Angeles for a photo shoot on October 16, just days after Kardashian’s Skims launched its hotly discussed faux pubic hair thong, which quickly sold out upon release.
The on-set camaraderie among the women is hard to miss, as they share hugs and laughter upon arrival. Kardashian jokingly claims, “Merkins are the new Birkins,” which sets off a playful banter among the group. As the shooting unfolds, it becomes evident that these women have forged a close bond during filming. Moments of genuine affection and support abound, rooted in an initial dinner organized by Ryan Murphy to help them get acquainted. Kardashian notes, “We all had dinner, talked s—, had some drinks and really just got to know each other on a personal level.”
Focusing on a team of strong female divorce attorneys who leave a traditional firm to start their own practice, “All’s Fair” aims to deliver stories that resonate with women in challenging situations while promoting empowerment and support from one another. Kardashian stars as Allura Grant, a character inspired by her real-life attorney Laura Wasser, with whom she has shared significant moments throughout her divorces.
Kardashian, who plays a lawyer navigating her own divorce, expresses excitement working under Murphy’s direction. The creator had initially pitched a show based on Kardashian’s reality television fame but later tailored a script focusing on her journey in the legal field, finding that approach mutually rewarding. She emphasizes how important it has been to learn from her co-stars, many of whom have extensive acting backgrounds.
As filming commenced, the cast engaged in both serious scenes and moments of levity, with Paulson portraying the antagonist to Kardashian’s character. Their connection extends beyond the screen, reflected in bonding gifts that include salmon-sperm facials from Kardashian and thoughtful mementos like personalized nameplates from Close.
The actress ensemble, renowned for their talent and warmth, has created an atmosphere of encouragement and laughter, with Nash-Betts highlighting the unique support present on this set. The dynamic is punctuated by Close’s mentorship and spirited humor, making for a multifaceted experience as they tackle the dramatic but often tumultuous narratives of women’s lives.
In exploring themes of resilience and friendship, “All’s Fair” promises to not only entertain but also inspire its audience. As the group looks ahead towards promoting the show, they share excitement about their growing camaraderie and future adventures beyond the series—perhaps with more humor and “merkins” on their itinerary.
