It’s been two years since The Mindy Project aired its final episode. And now, Mindy Kaling is bringing us a brand-new TV show inspired by her life story.
That’s right, the 39-year-old actress is teaming up with Netflix to develop a ten-episode series. The untitled project will follow a modern-day teenage girl, who just so happens to be a first-generation Indian American.
Kaling created the show alongside Lang Fisher (30 Rock), who will also serve as showrunner. Both Kaling and Fisher will executive produce the series along with Howard Klein (The Office) and David Miner (The Good Place).
Although Kaling originally enlisted Universal Television to helm the show, she recently called it off before signing a new deal with Warner Bros. Television.
