ON DECK: E-V-E Nabs Starring Role In New ABC Interracial Romantic Comedy

E-V-E is on her way back to television.  Find out about the newly engaged rapper’s new starring role on deck, plus a few other projects, inside….

She may be getting ready to marry a British multimillionaire, but the former "Single Ladies", Barbershop and "Eve" star is not abandoning her acting career.  Eve was just tapped to star in a new network television show for ABC.   It’s a romantic comedy involving an interracial relationship, and she’s also serving as Executive Producer.  Maybe slightly based on her own life (hmmm…)?

Deadline reports:

ABC has closed a deal for a multi-camera comedy project to star actress-rapper Eve, from Aaron Kaplan’s Kapital Entertainment and ABC Studios. The project, which is eyed for the 2014-15 development season, is looking for a writer…. Kaplan approached Eve (full name Eve Jeffers) with the idea for a multi-camera interracial romantic comedy. The two pitched it to ABC, which bought the project with penalty.

And that’s not all.  She’s got a new movie called Animal with Keke Palmer, directed by Drew Barrymore.  And she’ll also be making an appearance on this upcoming season of "Re Paul’s Drag Race" and a new movie called Bounty Killer.

Work!
