FX announced Saturday at the Television Critics Association’s winter press tour that the 30 Rock alum is set to develop and star in a half-hour comedy pilot written by Jordan Peele andEastbound & Down’s John Carcieri.
The project — which marks the comedian’s re-emergence following the devastating 2014 crash that left him in a coma with several broken bones — centers on a career criminal who is released from prison after 15 years, hoping to reintegrate into a society that long ago left him behind. Now a man whose only expertise is making grilled cheese with an iron must navigate a modern world of political correctness, the Internet and self-driving cars.
