Despite a recent cancellation for Hulu comedy series How To Die Alone, the celebrations will not stop for creator and actor Nathasa Rothwell. The series followed Mel (Rothwell) a Black, plus sized and perpetually broke JFK airport employee who’s never been in love and forgotten how to dream, until an accidental death scare challenges her to ignite her passions. Rothwell’s next project will see her team up with TikTok’s Tareasa “Reesa Teesa” who went viral for sharing her true story about the wild dissolution of her marriage in 50 part videos that ranged from five to 10 minutes.
