Jessica Biel Drops Out Of ‘The Good Daughter’ Series Adaptation On Peacock

Buy Me A Coffee

Jessica Biel just pulled a dramatic mic drop and walked away from her latest project, “The Good Daughter.” That’s right—Biel, aka the woman who somehow never ages (seriously, what moisturizer is she using?), was all set to star in and produce the series, based on the Karin Slaughter novel of the same name. But nope, she’s outta there faster than you can say “IMDb trivia.”

According to the all-knowing guys at Deadline, Biel has exited stage left with no word on why. Was it creative differences? A burning desire to perfect the ultimate banana bread recipe? A sudden need to binge-watch all ten seasons of “Friends” again? The world may never know. The project was supposed to be a big deal too, with a straight-to-series order at Peacock, which basically means the network didn’t even bother with the whole “let’s make a pilot first” thing. They were that confident.

Now, what exactly was “The Good Daughter” about? Buckle up, because it’s your classic “sisters with a dark past” tale, sprinkled with legal drama and small-town mystery. Picture this: Charlotte (who Biel would have played) and her sister Samantha have been spending 28 years trying to pick up the pieces of their shattered lives after some seriously messed up stuff went down one night. Like, big “Lifetime movie marathon” levels of drama. Then, just when things can’t get any weirder, BOOM—another attack hits their quiet little town of Pikeville. And guess who’s the first one on the scene? Yep, Charlotte. And just like that, we’re in full detective-lawyer mode with her untangling a web of secrets that could make even the most seasoned soap opera writer jealous. Cue the dramatic courtroom scenes and family revelations, all while these sisters wonder, “Was being the good daughter really worth it? Should we have just been average instead?”

But alas, the hunt is on for a new star to step into Biel’s would-be lawyer shoes. Who will it be? Will it be someone equally talented, or will it be someone we last saw on a random reality show in 2008? Stay tuned.

Now, don’t worry—Jessica isn’t just sitting at home wondering what could’ve been. She’s still set to star in another show (because multitasking is clearly her superpower). This one’s called “The Better Sister”—apparently, she’s sticking to a sibling rivalry theme—and it’s also based on a book. Last we saw of her, she was strutting around a NYC set in July, probably doing something very important and actress-y.

So, farewell, Jessica Biel of “The Good Daughter.” You will be missed… but only until we see who replaces you.
