"Community" star Alison Brie is teaming up with "Orange is the New Black" creator Jenji Kohan for a wrestling comedy.
Brie has picked the project for her return to live-action TV comedy, and it's called "GLOW".
Standing for 'Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling', the series will be based on the televised 1980s wrestling league of the same name and will consist of ten episodes, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Brie's been cast as a struggling actress who turns to the spandex and big hair of the wrestling world to get her career going.
Kohan's co-creators are Liz Flahive ('Homeland') and Carly Mensch ('Orange is the New Black'), while another of the 'OITNB' crew, Tara Herrmann, is one of the executive producers.
