Heather Locklear signs onto ABC pilot See Jane Run
Heather Locklear is getting another shot at an ABC pilot for the upcoming season since her last pilot didn’t make it from this season.
The former “Melrose Place” and “Spin City” star has taken the title role in “See Jayne Run,” a comedy about a single mom trying to fit her new baby into her type-A life, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The pilot is Locklear’s second in as many years for ABC; last season she starred in the comedy “Women of a Certain Age,” which wasn’t picked up.
“Jayne” will feature Locklear as an investment banker who’s used to living on her own terms and figures she’ll be able to keep doing so even after having a child, which she decides to raise on her own. Not surprisingly, things don’t quite go as planned.
There are quite a few other names already attached to this project.
Locklear is joining a cast that also includes “Big Day” alumni Kurt Fuller and Stephen Rannazzisi, Ava Gaudet (”Ugly Betty”) and Jarrad Paul (”Monk,” “40 Days and 40 Nights”). Alana Sanko (”Murphy Brown,” “Just for Kicks”) created the show and is executive producing with Peter Traugott (”Jake in Progress,” “The Showbiz Show”).
This pilot actually sounds interesting, unlike Women of a Certain Age which just, well, wasn’t.
