NBC announced on Friday that the former Disney Channel tween-queen will be joining the network and starring in her own series.
“Hilary is an incredibly versatile talent with a huge following whose career we know will continue to soar on NBC,” Teri Weinberg, Executive Vice President of NBC Entertainment said in a statement on Friday. ”We are confident we will develop great ideas that would feature her vast talents and are thrilled to have this opportunity.”
According to the press release, the one-year contract will allow Duff, 21, to also guest appear in other NBC series.
Duff is no rookie to the small screen after starring and gaining fame in Disney Channel’s Lizzie McGuire, which aired from 2001 to 2004.
She continued to find success with a music career. Her latest album, Best of Hilary Duff, released November 4. No premiere date has been set for the series so far.
