The Hollywood Reporter writes that Mary-Louise Parker (Weeds, Broadway's The Snow Geese), has officially signed on to star in NBC's comedy pilot FEED ME.

Read the original report here.

From Paul Junger Witt and Tony Thomas' Witt/Thomas Productions, the single-camera dark comedy is "a comedic exploration of adult intimacy and desire that centers on a dysfunctional family bound by love and the restaurant they run together. And when daughter Emma's husband has an affair, they circle the wagons to fiercely protect one of their own." Sally Robinson penned the script.

Parker will play 'Ellen', an accountant, wife and mother of two who "is stuck in her ways and whose approach to life is a challenge for those around her - including her husband, parents and brothers, most of whom are in the restaurant business".

Parker recently wrapped a run in MCC Theatre's THE SNOW GEESE, and is best known for her role as cannabis-selling widow Nancy Botwin on Showtime's WEEDS. She was also recently seen opposite Bruce Willis and Helen Mirren in RED 2, and Ryan Reynolds and Jeff Bridges in R.I.P.D. Coming up is the feature Behaving Badly.
