ABC is flashing the "V" sign.

The network has given a pilot order to a reimagining of the 1980s miniseries about an alien invasion.

Written on spec by "4400" co-creator/exec producer Scott Peters, the new "V" will center on a female Homeland Security agent.

Peters is exec producing the pilot with HDFilms principal Jason Hall.

Two ABC pilots picked up so far this pilot season are presold titles based on 1980s properties, "The Witches of Eastwick" and "V."

Both are being produced by Warner Bros. TV.
