Actress and singer Cynthia Erivo is taking on a new role as executive producer of the Quibi’s docuseries What We Keep.
What We Keep is based on the book of the same name by Bill Shapiro and Naomi Wax and it will give viewers a look into the homes of famous people to ask them, “Of all that you own, what object means the most to you and why?”
Erivo will executive produce alongside Shapiro, Wax, Oscar winner Dan Cogan (Icarus) and two-time Emmy winner Liz Garbus (What Happened, Miss Simone?).
“In our current collective world experience, objects that provide comfort, memories, and safety are more important than ever. ‘What We Keep’ features unforgettable stories of deep love, pure inspiration, and great humor — and reveals these items as reminders of who we are,” according to the logline.
Erivo’s next roles are as Aretha Franklin in the Nat Geo series Genius, Doug Liman’s Chaos Walking, and John Ridley’s Needle in a Timestack.
