January Jones to star in Fox TV's 'The Last Man on Earth'

January Jones is set to star in Fox network's post-apocalyptic comedy 'The Last Man on Earth.'

According to the Hollywood Reporter, the show, which features Will Forte as the sole survivor of some mysterious mass disappearance of humanity, has added four actors to the cast including Jones, comedian Kristen Schaal, Mel Rodriguez and Cleopatra Coleman.

This would be the 36-year-old 'Mad Men' star's first TV gig since wrapping production on the AMC this past summer, and she would be playing the role of Melissa, who's described as having a "strong independent spirit" and a mixture of "warmth, strength, and a no-nonsense attitude."

Produced by 20th Century Fox Television, the show, which would debut in March 2015, was created and written by Forte, and Phil Lord and Chris Miller would helm the pilot.
