Connie Britton may have found her next role. Deadline reports that the Friday Night Lights alum will executive produce and star in a new comedy pilot on Hulu. From Drew Goddard’s Goddard Textiles and 20th Television, “Phony is a comedic coming-of-age mystery about a teenager, Sonny, who wakes up in the hospital after a car accident to discover his mom — his only parent and his best friend — appears to have been replaced by an impostor.”
Britton is set to play Sonny’s mom, Ellen, who is also the principal of his high school. The pilot is written, directed, and executive produced by Nick Paley. Britton will also executive produce alongside Charlie Alderman of Charlie’s Production Company and Drew Goddard and Sarah Esberg for Goddard Textiles. Goddard Textiles’ Andrea Massaro is a producer.
