Amy Adams and Adam McKay to reunite for Netflix’s show Kings of America

Netflix is coming up with an interesting drama titled Kings of America that centers on the stories of three powerful women whose lives were inextricably intertwined with the world’s largest company: a Walmart heiress, a maverick executive, and a longtime Walmart saleswoman and preacher who dared to fight against the retail giant in the biggest class action lawsuit in US history.

Amy Adams, who had acted previously in Sharp Objects, Vice, will star as one of the leads and will also serve as the executive producer for the show alongside Stacy O’Neil.  Adam McKay will direct the first episode and also take up the role as another executive producer along with Betsy Koch.

Adams and McKay are reuniting for Kings of America after working together on Vice, which went on to receive eight Academy Award nominations, including a Best Supporting Actress nod for Adams. They first collaborated on McKay’s 2006 comedy, Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby. Emmy-nominee Diana Son (Genius: Aretha, 13 Reasons Why) will be its showrunner. Writer Jess Kimball Leslie is credited as the series creator and executive producer. For the uninitiated, Kimball is a journalist and author of “I Love My Computer Because My Friends Live In It.”
