Karen Jacobs has heard plenty of stories about Glorious
Pictures and Phil and Tony Waxman, the notorious twin
brothers who co-founded the film studio and now run it with
four iron fists. For the last twenty years, their mix of
edgy films and take-no-prisoners deal making had earned the
company hundreds of awards, billions of dollars, and a
singular reputation as an incredibly tough place to work.
But when she is offered a job there, Karen doesn't
hesitate, knowing that if any place proved that the sky was
the limit, Glorious was it. She finds herself with an
all-access pass to the tantrums, whims, follies, neuroses,
and unimaginable egos of the celebrities who star in
Glorious' films, which come as no surprise. It's the
absolute insanity inside the company that knocks her for a
loop. Armed with tenacity, ambition and wit, Karen learns
that what it takes to make it in the civilized world may
have no bearing in the Glorious one. Extremely competitive
and cutthroat, the Glorious executives continuously search
for ways to outdo, outscheme, and outmaneuver each other in
their attempts to impress the Waxmans.
