Forget about boring midlife crises, here comes Annette Frier's steamy take!
Annette Frier, the 51-year-old German comedy queen with a taste for the unconventional, is set to light up the screen in 2025 with "Frier & 50" - a brand-new comedy series premiering on Joyn. As announced recently, filming began this month for this eight-episode ride through menopausal madness!
What's "Frier & 50" All About?
You'd think menopause is a topic best left for deep conversations over tea. Not for Annette Frier! In "Frier & 50," she plays a fictionalized version of herself, a 50-year-old woman smack in the middle of menopause. To make her predicament even juicier, her husband Sascha (Alexander Khuon, 46) has traded her in for a younger model, and her 20-year-old daughter Jola (Maria Matschke Engel) is about to dash her dreams of being a cool, young grandma. To top it off, Frier's job prospects are as dry as her skin thanks to her age.
But when her agent Julia (Jasmin Shakeri, 46) offers her a role as her younger sister Caro's (Caroline Frier, 42) mother, Frier hits the roof! She decides it's high time to create a series that doesn't pull any punches—one that tackles menopause head-on, bringing humor, wit, and a dash of reality to everyone's favorite (not-so) lovely life stage.
