Lea Michele moves on from Scream Queens, gets new TV gig
Lea Michele is leaving the Ryan Murphy universe. According to The Hollywood Reporter, she’s nabbed a job on the ABC comedy pilot about a rapper-turned-mayor from Hamilton’s Daveed Diggs. It’s unclear who Michele will be playing, but THR notes that “the part is being adjusted to specifically accommodate the actress.” So we assume that means the character can do a damn good Streisand impression and is extremely Type-A. Regardless, she’ll be opposite Brandon Micheal Hall, who has the lead role.
