Mix Community star Alison Brie with Orange is the New Black creator Jenji Kohan, add Netflix and some '80s wrestling, and what do you get? A surefire cult hit, we imagine.
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.
What to Read Next
Brie wrapped up six seasons of Community last year (although that talk of a spinoff movie doesn't look like stopping), and is a regular on Netflix's animated comedy BoJack Horseman. Her other high-profile shows have included Mad Men, and her many films include The Lego Movie and Get Hard.
Kohan, on the other hand, has her hands pretty full with Orange is the New Black, after signing a mammoth deal with Netflix for three more seasons.
