“They almost seem like modern-day tweets because they were short and small and on these scraps of paper… so it did seem so today and the mind of today,” Jane, who plays Hailee‘s mother on the series, shared about Emily Dickinson‘s famous poems that are featured in the show.
Dickinson is a half-hour comedy series that audaciously explores the constraints of society, gender and family from the perspective of rebellious young poet Emily Dickinson. The series is a coming-of-age story, set in the 19th century, that finds Emily to be the unexpected hero for our millennial generation.

“It’s been so incredible to be working with Apple on this project, as its a new venture for them, and for me as well — I’ve really never done anything in the TV space so a lot of how this is all working is all new to me too,” Hailee shared in a new interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music’s Beats 1.
She added, “I’m executive producing the show which is my first time filling that role. I mean the reason I wanted to do that was going back to the first time I read the script it really felt unlike anything I’d ever come across so I wanted to show up in a way that wasn’t just as an actor… I wanted to be a part of these decision making processes and see things through from the beginning middle to end and its been a wonderful experience.”
