Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Donald Glover will be playing the new dynamic duo of the on-screen Mr. and Mrs. Smith as it gets made into a series.

Amazon Studios has roped in Fleabag's star, Phoebe Waller-Bridge and singer-actor, Donald Glover for a series based on the hit 2005 movie, Mr. and Mrs. Smith. This marks a reunion of Phoebe and Donald, after working together in the Stars Wars spin-off, Solo: A Stars Wars Story'. Glover, shared the news as an Instagram story, revealing that the new series will debut in 2022. Phoebe has been seen in many movies but rose to fame with 'Fleabag' while Donald has starred in, Atlanta and Spider-Man: Homecoming.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the project apparently will not only star but is also created by Waller-Bridge and Glover. It has been quietly in the works for months and stems from the Fleabag star’s overall deal with Amazon. Francesca Sloane has co-created the show and will also serve as the Showrunner. Amazon is backing the project in collaboration with New Regency, the producer of the movie.
