Vanessa Hudgens to star in DC comics comedy 'Powerless'

Grease Live alum Vanessa Hudgens has been tapped to star in NBC's DC Comics comedy pilot Powerless.

The single-camera workplace comedy is set at one of the worst insurance companies in America with the twist being that it also takes place in the universe of DC Comics.

The project is about the reality of working life for a normal, powerless person in a world of superheroes and villains, said the Hollywood Reporter.

If Hudgens comes on board, Powerless would mark her first small screen regular role.
