“Third Rock From the Sun” vet Kristen Johnston is close to signing to star in Fox’s remake of the British comedy “Absolutely Fabulous,” Daily Variety reports. Johnston did a table read with network executives last week and then the project was greenlit for pilot production, the trade says. Other actors participated in the table read, but there is no guarantee that any of them will be in the series, Variety notes.
