The romantic comedy is helmed by Jones, Will McCormack, Warner Bros. Television and writer Ben Queen.

“Alternately serious and hilarious, Zelda loves being a grown-up and doesn’t understand why anyone over 20 would go see an animated movie or eat ice cream sundaes. Destiny and fate are not in her vocabulary; she believes she controls her own destiny," a casting description of the series says.

The comedy follows Zelda and boyfriend Andrew from meeting to breaking up.

Jones is also developing a dramedy for CW called "The Revengers."
