Los Angeles, May 31 (PTI) Apple has given a straight-to-series order to a half-hour show about acclaimed 19th century poet Emily Dickinson, with actor Hailee Steinfeld set to play the lead.
According to Variety, the series is a comedic take on Dickinson's world, exploring the constraints of society, gender, and family from the perspective of a budding writer who does not fit in to her own time due to her imaginative point of view.
