Spinoff of Darren Star’s ‘Younger,’ Starring Hilary Duff, in Early Development
A spinoff of Hilary Duff comedy “Younger” is in early development with creator Darren Star at ViacomCBS, a source tells Variety.
"Younger", starring Duff and Sutton Foster, is entering its seventh season, making it the cable network’s longest-running original scripted series. The show, which initially centered on Foster’s Liza Miller, a 40-year-old divorcee posing as a millennial in order to return to the book publishing industry, revolves around the friendship between Duff and Foster’s characters as they navigate their careers and relationships. Duff stars as editor Kelsey Peters.
The series was created, written and executive produced by Star. Last year, “Younger” ranked as the top cable comedy among women 18-49 and women 25-54.; TV Land said that the Season 6 premiere last June was its highest-rated season premiere ever among viewers aged 25-54 and women 25-54.
A TV Land spokesperson declined to comment on the development moves. The yet-unwritten pilot for the “Younger” spinoff does not currently have a network attached. The Hollywood Reporter first reported the “Younger” move.
