Hulu’s ‘Swiped’ Biopic Explores Bumble Founder Whitney Wolfe Herd’s Tech Rise
The biographical film "Swiped," now streaming on Hulu, dramatizes the story of Whitney Wolfe Herd, co-founder of Tinder and founder of Bumble, portrayed by Lily James. Wolfe Herd initially resisted the film's production, expressing discomfort and fear about the portrayal of her life, though she respects James' casting and talent. James, who also served as a producer, conducted extensive research to capture Wolfe Herd's resilience and pioneering spirit in a male-dominated tech industry. The film highlights Wolfe Herd's journey from experiencing harassment at Tinder to creating Bumble, a dating app designed to empower women and create safer online spaces. Despite not being involved due to legal constraints, Wolfe Herd's story inspired James to embrace the role fully, viewing it as a meaningful and inspiring experience. "Swiped" contributes to the growing genre of tech entrepreneur biopics by spotlighting a female trailblazer's impact on the dating app landscape.
