The "High School Musical" actor is collaborating with Sabrina Jalees and Ali Wong on the project, which is currently in development as a standalone film. The comedy will center on a sleep-deprived new mom who becomes part of a wealthy clique that takes a dark turn. Tisdale's essay, "Breaking Up with My Toxic Mom Group," detailed her experience of being "frozen out" of a social circle after her first daughter was born in 2021. Celebrities Hilary Duff, Mandy Moore, and Meghan Trainor, who were speculated to be part of the group, publicly distanced themselves from the drama and disputed Tisdale's claims, though Tisdale's representative denied the speculation.
