Kristin Chenoweth to Co-Star in ABC Dramedy Pilot 'Good Christian Bitches'

Deadline.com is reporting that Broadway (and BroadwayWorld) favorite Kristin Chenoweth will be co-starring in the pilot for the new ABC dramedy - Good Christian Bitches. Chenoweth will co-star with Leslie Bibb and will play Darlene, the beautiful and manipulative head of this group of women, the G.C.Bs. They report that "A classic Dallas housewife and villain motivated by her skewed sense of goodness, Darlene is a good Christian woman who goes to church regularly, knows her Scripture, and has no compunctions about breaking a few Commandments here and there. She was once one of the girls Amanda was mean to, but she's now too much of a good Christian to do anything more than forgive Amanda and welcome her back to her hometown."

Emmy and Tony Award-winner Kristin Chenoweth effortlessly transitions between stage, television and film with captivating grace. Kristin recently returned to Broadway, and starred as Fran Kubelik in the revival of Promises, Promises starring alongside Sean Hayes. Many remember her show-stealing, Tony-winning performance in You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown and her triumphant star turn when she originated the role of Glinda the Good Witch in Wicked, which earned her a leading actress Tony Award nomination. She appeared in Fox's comedy Glee, starred as Annabeth Schott on the hit drama The West Wing, and recently guest judged on American Idol.

She received rave reviews while starring in the ABC series Pushing Daisies, where she received an Emmy Award for Best Supporting Actress.
