Actress Zoe Saldana is set to develop a U.S. version of Israeli documentary series Mothers.
The original show features six women, all with different lifestyles and approaches to motherhood, who are brought together to explore how each female deals with parenting.
Saldana, a mother of three young boys, will produce the U.S. adaptation via Cinestar Productions, the firm she runs with her sisters Mariel and Cisely, in collaboration with Authentic Entertainment bosses, according to Deadline.com.
"This format reached out and grabbed me, and it was the same for the Saldana sisters - immediate love for the boldness of the format," Authentic CEO and co-founder Lauren Lexton said. "It's part documentary, part social experiment and part juicy soap opera. You just can't stop watching."
The Saldana sisters added: "We're proud to be part of this amazing project, which offers a compelling glimpse into what it means to be a mother in the modern world. Mothers is incredibly watchable TV programming, but it equally serves as a platform for empowering women."
