It's been three years since Debra Messing and her Will & Grace co-stars said goodbye to TV audiences after eight seasons on NBC. And now OK! has confirmed reports that the Emmy-winning actress is set to return to the network with a brand-new comedy series.

The 40-year-old beauty has just inked a deal to develop a script for a new sitcom that will be filmed in and around Manhattan. In a straight-from-the-headlines story, Debra will star as a former CEO forced into being a stay-at-home mom by the faltering economy.
