Exclusive: Francesca Eastwood to star in new Web series

Francesca Eastwood, center, stars in 'Oh, You Pretty Things!', a new scripted Web series from Maker Studios and 'Nylon Magazine.'

Take MTV's Laguna Beach, drive 50 miles northeast, pick up some hipster clothes on the way and you'll end up at Oh, You Pretty Things!

That's the name of the new scripted Web series from Maker Studios, the YouTube channel operator in the midst of a potential $500 million acquisition from Disney, and fashion magazine Nylon.

The 10-episode series, which will premiere May 19, stars Francesca Eastwood. The daughter of Clint and actress Frances Fisher stars as a "lifestyle blogger" trying to make it on the Eastside of Los Angeles. Sarah Dumont, Tui Asau, Alexander Nifong and Matthew Grathwol also are part of the ensemble cast.

Pretty Things follows a group of (very pretty) 20-somethings trying to make it in the fashion and underground music scene of the Eastside of L.A. The first episode debuts on Maker's fashion + beauty network The Platform (youtube.com/theplatform).

The series is part of a new partnership between Maker Studios and Nylon TV. The two brands will be collaborating on a number of original programming initiatives for the NYLON TV YouTube channel as well as other cross-platform ventures.
