Brooke Shields<\/a>\u2019<\/strong> latest project is a prime example of art imitating life.<\/p>\n

On Acorn TV\u2019s You\u2019re Killing Me<\/em> <\/a>(new episodes weekly through June 22), the beloved actress plays bestselling novelist Allie, who\u2019s entering a new era of her life.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe was a woman of my age who had still so much to offer and so much to experience and create,\u201d Shields, 60, who also executive produces, exclusively told Us Weekly<\/em> in our latest issue, on newsstands now.<\/p>\n

Despite her boundless possibilities, Allie is \u201cmet with\u2026 this message that she\u2019s done,\u201d she said. \u201cShe hit a certain age and she has no value anymore\u2026 I wanted to be able to highlight that, then bring in a younger generation where [the two] can combine and communicate and be better than the sum of their parts.\u201d<\/p>\n

Enter Andi (Amalia Williamson<\/strong><\/a>). The characters form an unlikely partnership to solve murders \u2014 including the mysterious death of Allie\u2019s friend \u2014 in their small New England town, much to the chagrin of local police detective Jack (Ed<\/em>\u2019s Tom Cavanagh<\/strong>).<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s so much that\u2019s layered into how these two women communicate, who come from very different ages and different experiences,\u201d Shields said. \u201cThat was the heart of it.\u201d<\/p>\n
