NBC’s untitled Emily Spivey comedy pilot is building a star-studded cast. _Arrested Development _alum Will Arnett has closed a deal to join Christina Applegate and Maya Rudolph in the


project, executive produced by _Saturday Night Live_ honcho Lorne Michaels. The project, written by former _SNL_ scribe Emily Spivey, is described as an irreverent look at parenthood through


the POV of an acerbic working mother (Applegate) -– who never thought she’d be a mom -– along with her stay-at-home husband (Arnett) and opinionated parents. Emmy nominee Arnett, who


recently co-created/toplined Fox’s comedy _Running Wilde,_ had planned not to do a pilot this season despite being approached for several projects but liked Spivey’s script. Arnett, repped


by WME and Principato-Young, also has a relationship with Michaels as he has been recurring on the Michaels-produced NBC series _30 Rock. _ 20 Comments JavaScript is required to load the
