EXCLUSIVE: Amber Ruffin has another scripted project in the works with NBCUniversal.
The comedian, who writes for Late Night with Seth Meyers and hosts The Amber Ruffin Show, has been developing an adaptation of You’ll Never Believe What Happened To Lacey, the book she wrote with her sister Lacey Lamar, for Peacock.
It comes after her last scripted project, her Non-Evil Twin pilot, did not move forward at NBC.
However, NBCUniversal remains keen to work with Ruffin, once the writers and actors strikes have ended. Ruffin and her writing partner Jenny Hagel signed an overall deal with Universal Television last year, through their new production company Straight To Cards.
It also comes as the future of her Peacock variety series The Amber Ruffin Show is unclear.
The show has run for three seasons on the streamer after launching in September 2020. The first two seasons were weekly, airing every Friday, but the third season, which launched in September 2022, only consisted of five specials.
In February, when Non-Evil Twin, which was written by and set to star Ruffin, was handed a pilot order, the company said it would continue to develop specials around the show.
However, we understand that no additional episodes have been ordered and it’s not clear whether the show will return for these specials.
There’s a few reasons for this; firstly, the late-night world is still on pause as a result of the writers strike, Peacock is still figuring out its strategy with regards to variety/talk and whether one of Ruffin’s scripted projects, such as You’ll Never Believe What Happened To Lacey, goes to series.
The book adaptation, the script sale for which was done before the strikes, is now in the works with Peacock and Universal

Speaking of the track in a press release, the singer shared:“’Nothing Works’ came out of the frustration of feeling boxed in and tied to expectation, but it is a euphoric tune, at its core it’s a celebration of being true to yourself.”He continued: “In the track, I’m kind of mocking the idea that I’d just take advice that neglects my own intuition, and I often feel like nothing works when you’re trying to match norms or expectations, because you can never please everyone, but if you trust your gut and your own motivations in any aspect of life, the parameters for feeling good in yourself are much simpler and more powerful.”Produced by Gianluca Buccellati (Lana Del Rey, Arlo Parks), ‘What Happened To The Beach?’ marks Mckenna’s third studio album following 2020’s ‘Zeros‘.
