Alyssa Milano has closed deals on three separate projects. She’s set to develop, executive and star as herself in Alyssa Milano For Mayor, a comedy series in development at Lifetime. She also has been promoted to series regular on the upcoming Netflix drama series Insatiable after guest-starring in the pilot. And Milano has set up a new adaptation of her 2014 graphic novel Hacktivist at the CW.
In Alyssa Milano For Mayor, a soft-scripted show in the vein of Curb Your Enthusiasm, Milano (p-laying herself) through a series of circumstances, ends up becoming the mayor of a suburban LA town and is forced to deal with the minutia of community politics. The series, which somewhat echoes ABC’s freshman The Mayor, is being produced by A+E Studios in association with Milano’s Peace By Peace Productions.
The CW is taking a second crack at developing a TV series based on Milano’s graphic novel Hacktivist with a new writer, Grant Thompson. The fast-paced cyber thriller was first developed with different writers last season and subsequently rolled.
