Fox is set to release a new thriller series called The Cleaning Lady which is an adaptation of an Argentinian drama La Chica Que Limpia. Elodie Yung (known for playing Elektra Natchios in Marvel series Daredevil) is playing the lead role of Thony De La Rosa, a Cambodian doctor who visits the U.S. for her son's treatment but is forced to stay and survive as a cleaning lady in the same hospital.
The Cleaning Lady was greenlit by Fox in October 2019 and the pilot was supposed to be released in January 2020 with actress Shannyn Sossamon as the lead. Due to the pandemic, the series got delayed and Shannyn exited the project. Elodie Yung was then cast as the leading lady.

Elodie Yung, the protagonist who plays Thony in the series, says:
“I have been really praying for a part like this, where I could really express what I have in my heart. And I do feel that Thony has given me the opportunity to really express my feelings, my emotions. And my truth.”
