Vanessa Hudgens to star in DC comics comedy 'Powerless'

"Grease Live" alum Vanessa Hudgens has been tapped to star in NBC's DC Comics comedy pilot "Powerless".

The single-camera workplace comedy is set at one of the worst insurance companies in America - with the twist being that it also takes place in the universe of DC Comics.

The project is about the reality of working life for a normal, powerless person in a world of superheroes and villains, said the Hollywood Reporter.

If Hudgens comes on board, "Powerless" would mark her first small screen regular role.
