"I am excited to announce my new partnership with Netflix," Jen said in a statement shared by the streaming platform.

"Elaine, Benny and I believe there is no better home for us than a forward leaning content creation company that seeks to defy conventional wisdom and directly market to the millions across the globe who no longer view art and entertainment with the kind of boundaries and limitations of the past."

She adds that she's looking forward to "getting to work right away" and already has two films in the works - The Mother and The Cipher - which she'll also be starring in.
