The project will mark the second collaboration between Kaling and Fisher, who have both worked on the romantic-comedy series The Mindy Project.
Netflix has announced the newcomer Maitreyi Ramakrishan has officially been tapped for the lead role in Emmy Award-nominated writer-actress Mindy Kaling and Lang Fisher (Brooklyn Nine-Nine)’s forthcoming coming-of-age comedy series.
The Canadian newcomer was cast through an open casting call announced by Kaling last April which had over 15,000 applicants.
