ViacomCBS has teamed with "Younger" creator Darren Star on a spin-off of TV Land’s flagship series, with Hilary Duff to star, sources tell Deadline.

The project is currently in early development and a network is not yet attached. It could be headed to Paramount Network, we hear, where "Younger" was slated to move for its sixth season, but plans were reversed and it remained in its original home on TV Land.

It’s also possible the series could be shopped elsewhere. A TV Land spokesperson declined comment.

"It’s just something we’ve been thinking about,” Darren Star told the Associated Press while promoting Emily in Paris. “I love Hilary Duff, and I think it’s gonna be something that (will) possibly be a whole different show than Younger but sort of it would be her character.”

Younger creator Darren Star describes the potential Hilary Duff-led spinoff as a "female Entourage" (https://variety.com/2021/tv/news/younger-spinoff-hilary-duff-details-1234947274/)

“We’re talking about it. It’s a big question mark whether it’s going to happen,” Star tells Variety. “It could be great, but we never know if these things are going to happen until they’re going to happen.” He adds: “It would be a totally new universe" that would only include Kelsey Peters, who would “be following another dream.” “The best way to describe it is that it would be a bit of a female Entourage with Kelsey as the lead,” says Star. “Still, the caveat is if it’s going to happen.”
