Huma Abedin's best-selling memoir, Both/And: A Life in Many Worlds, will be adapted for the screen in an upcoming television series. Freida Pinto, 37, is slated to portray Abedin, 46.
Pinto will also executive produce the show alongside Abedin through her production company.
Both/And tells Abedin's story in her own words, from her upbringing in Saudi Arabia, to landing an internship in first lady Hillary Clinton's office, to becoming Clinton's top advisor throughout her many political ventures.
It also tells a story of heartbreak and guilt, diving into her ex-husband Anthony Weiner's sexting scandal, which disrupted Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign.
