Christina Applegate to star in new sitcom
The comedy has been penned by Saturday Night Live writer Emily Spivey, who produces the NBC series Parks and Recreation.
Deadline reports that Applegate has now landed the lead role in the project.
She will play a working mother who never expected that she would have children. The show will also feature the house husband and parents of Applegate's character.
Applegate, who reportedly received a number of offers this pilot season, previously starred in Samantha Who? She has also worked on shows including Friends, Jesse and Married with Children and has starred in movies such as Anchorman and Hall Pass.
The NBC project, which is in contention for the 2011-2012 season, is being executive produced by Saturday Night Live showrunner Lorne Michaels.
