In a rare television role for the actress, Heather Graham has signed on to star opposite Rob Corddry in Fox’s comedy pilot "Little in Common," reports Deadline.com.
Graham and Corddry will play a couple who move from California to Texas, but find it tougher to adjust than they had thought, the story notes.
Graham is best known for her work in feature films, including "Drugstore Cowboy," "Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me," "The Hangover" and "Boogie Nights." She is taking on a role that’s been recast, as the original pilot starred Paula Marshall, the piece says.
During earlier pilot screenings, "Little in Common" had solid buzz but didn’t receive a series order in May. Fox then ordered a retooled pilot for midseason consideration.

Sure hope this works out better than “Emily’s Reasons Why Not” which was heavily promoted by ABC in 2006 then debuted and was canceled in the same week!
