Minx

Minx establishes itself as one of the greatest Max originals in recent memory from the start: a proud self-professed feminist (only lacking the right tote bag) teams up with the allegedly sleazy proprietor of an adult magazine firm to launch the first sexy glossy periodical for women. What works about Minx is how Johnson's character subverts type in unexpected ways; behind those unbuttoned shirts and medallions is a man who keeps a lot of women as close confidantes and holds them in professional regard, and at the same time, Lovibond's Joyce finds her second-wave, Vassar-grad assumptions about the world challenged firsthand.

Minx is an American comedy television show produced and written by Ellen Rapoport that stars Ophelia Lovibond and Jake Johnson. On March 17, 2022, it debuted on HBO Max. On February 19, 2020, HBO Max announced that the project has received a pilot order. Ellen Rapoport, of Feigco Entertainment, was tapped to write and executive produce alongside Paul Feig and Dan Magnante. Rachel Lee Goldenberg, the director of Unpregnant, was attached to direct and executive produce the pilot on September 3, 2020. On April 5, 2021, HBO Max announced that the project has been picked up for 10 half-hour episodes.
