Mira Sorvino will star opposite stand-up comedian Jim Gaffigan in this autobiographical CBS comedy pilot, Deadline reported Thursday.
Sorvino's character will bear the same name as Gaffigan's real-life spouse, Jeannie, described as a "super-wife and super-mom." In the traditional sitcom mold, Sorvino's character will have to raise five kids, as well as her man-child husband, Jim.
