As usual, it seems that at Apple, once they take a liking to working with someone, they want to keep doing it on a recurring basisAt least that is what the latest rumors related to the former US Secretary of State and her daughter Chelsea Clinton imply through her production company HiddenLight Productions.
As we can read in Deadline, both Hillay and Chelsea Clinton they want to reach an agreement with Apple again through its production company, HiddenLight Productions, to bring the novel to the streaming video service The Daughters of Kobani: A Story of Rebellion, Courage and Justice from writer Gayle Tzemach Lemmon, to whom they recently purchased the rights.
Deadline claims there was a bidding war to get the rights to this book, so it is more than likely that it will also end up on Apple TV +, according to what they say from the same medium.
As Hillay Clinton states:
This title is a tale of brave and defiant women who fight for justice and equality. We created HiddenLight to celebrate heroes whose value is too often overlooked, and we couldn't be more excited to bring this inspiring story to viewers around the world.
The book shows us the real story, of a Kurdish militia composed only of women who faced the local ISIS contingent in the area of Syria and emerged victorious. This triumph, provoked an important appeal in the region due to the militia trying to vindicate gender equality. In addition, it provided important support for the United States Special Operations Forces in the area.
