“Helping adapt The Other Black Girl for television was easily the hardest creative challenge I’ve ever taken on,” said Harris in an interview with EW.

It was also the most rewarding, as it allowed me to see all the ways my original idea could not only be expanded upon, but reimagined for a visual medium. This show reflects a blend of many exciting new perspectives that include Rashida Jones, Jordan Reddout, and Gus Hickey, and this story is all the better for it!”

In an interview with Cosmopolitan, Harris revealed what themes she wanted to resonate with the show’s audience.

“There are a few things, but I think Nella’s conversations with other Black women is something that I really want to land. When I was writing the book, I really wanted it to land with Black readers.

I really wanted this book, first and foremost, to speak to Black women and Black people in general and so that’s of course the same concern I have for the show. I want the conversations and the Black women to feel authentic.”
