The project is scheduled to premiere in 2021. Imagine Documentaries is producing along with the New York Post.
Gossip Starring Cindy Adams will chronicle the rise of Adams and her gossip columns in the New York Post. Not only will the project celebrate Adams’ four-decade career, it will examine the cast of celebrated and at times notorious characters that have emerged from her writing.

Grazer and Howard will executive produce Gossip alongside Imagine Entertainment’s Michael Rosenberg, Imagine Documentaries’ Sara Bernstein and Justin Wilkes, and Troy Searer from New York Post Entertainment.
