An Oscar-winning actress is in discussions to join "More as the Story Develops," an HBO project from Aaron Sorkin and Scott Rudin, reports the New York Post’s Page Six.

Marisa Tomei met with Sorkin and Rudin as well as the pilot’s director, Greg Mottola, the story notes. The team has been searching for an actress to play the executive producer on a cable news show, which stars an anchor played by Jeff Daniels, the piece notes.

Tomei won an Oscar for “My Cousin Vinny” in 1993 and has two other Oscar nominations, for “In the Bedroom” and “The Wrestler.”
