Amber Riley is setting her sights on a Dream gig: The Glee vet will star in and co-executive-produce the music-driven comedy, which is in development at NBC, our sister site Deadline reports.
The single-camera project follows a former teen mom, Dream Morgan (played by Riley), who turns her life upside down to pursue her dream of becoming a singer after her son graduates from college. Lisa Muse Bryant (black-ish) will pen the script and serve as showrunner, in addition to exec-producing alongside Neil Meron (The Wiz Live!, Smash).
