Keri’s Comeback

At long last, after flirting with the big screen Keri Russell is returning to TV.

The actress will co-star opposite Will frakkin’ Arnett in a new Fox sitcom produced by Arrested Development creator Mitch Hurwitz.

Russell will play Arnett’s love interest in Wilde Kingdom, the new single-camera romantic comedy pilot from Hurtwitz and fellow Arrested Development scribe James Vallely. Arnett will also serve as a writer/producer.

The show will follow Steve Wilde (Arnett), a wealthy, self-centered 90210 playboy who falls for a selfless humanitarian (Russell).

This is quite easily the best casting news of the season.
