Hank Azaria has been tapped to star in NBC's single-camera comedy pilot Free Agents, lifting the contingency on the project.

The project brings Azaria back to NBC, where he recurred on Friends and starred in the short-lived comedy series Imagine That. On TV, Azaria, a key voice cast member of animated juggernaut The Simpsons, most recently headlined Showtime's offbeat series Huff.

I seriously doubt it, it is only a pilot and I am sure the Simpsons can work around his schedule.
