Williams and indie filmmaker Jim Strouse, the duo behind Williams' film The Incredible Jessica James, will write and executive produce the series, and Williams will (obviously) star in the show. The story revolves around an African American aspiring science fiction writer (Williams) while she comes of age in Brooklyn, as one does.

We're still light on details, but for those of us still aching for her return to television, the news couldn't come at a better time.
