Reese Witherspoon is seemingly unstoppable. She’s an Oscar-winning actor, Emmy-winning producer, has a book club and is now set to host her own talk-show VOD channel.

Dolly Parton, Ava DuVernay, Pink and America Ferrera are just a few of the guests on Reese Witherspoon’s unscripted half-hour television series “Shine On With Reese” where she’ll interview trailblazing women about their journeys to success.

The trailblazer in her own right will celebrate “the stories of extraordinary women who have created their own unique paths to success,” according to a press release, with host Witherspoon leading conversations about “their perspectives on ambition, work, family and hopes for the future.”

The series will find a home on a new video on demand network created for Witherspoon’s media company, Hello Sunshine, the Huffington Post reports.

“I am thrilled to have such like-minded, creative collaborators at AT&T to help Hello Sunshine pursue our mission of elevating and showcasing the voices of women that we have such admiration and respect for,” Witherspoon said in a press release.

Witherspoon is just one star among many signing production deals with media outlets. In June Oprah Winfrey signed a deal with Apple for new original programs. Witherspoon and Winfrey’s deals come as huge streaming services such as Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon are vying to lock producers, actors, and showrunners into production contracts, Entertainment Weekly reports.
