Check out the animated “Golden Girls 3033” pilot conceived of and directed by Mike Hollingsworth

I can’t BELIEVE this! I want more episodes!

An IndieWire Exclusive Preview: “Golden Girls 3033” pilot, conceived of and directed by Mike Hollingsworth.

“It’s ultimately a celebration of the material,” Hollingsworth told IndieWire, which premiered the pilot Friday. “With this concept, you’re getting the original performances. These are the words that Susan Harris wrote, and these are the performances that she oversaw as a director.”

Hollingsworth envisions the episodes as 30 minutes in length, and he promises that if the show is picked up, he’ll add more LGBTQ voices “in the driver’s seat” given the original series’ iconic status in the gay community.

Golden Girls 3033 has attracted network interest, according to Hollingsworth, but his dream is to see it on a streamer like Disney+ or Hulu.

Summary: In 1513 Ponce de León sailed to Florida in search of The Fountain of Youth. His inability to find it is said to have driven him mad. The fountain would remain undiscovered for another 480 years. That’s when four retired women, Dorthy, Rose, Blanche, and Sophia, found it on the grounds of their senior living facility in Miami.

Enjoy!
