American Pie star Natasha Lyonne is headed to Fox. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the actress has signed on to produce and star in a single-camera comedy loosely based on her life for the network.

The show is untitled for now, but it follows a woman named Stella (portrayed by Lyonne) who is forced to move in with her conservative brother and his family after leaving rehab and committing to living a sober, responsible adult life. Lyonne herself was arrested for a DUI in 2001, and she took part in a court-ordered drug program after pleading guilty to drunk driving.

Rules of Engagement's Alex Barnow and Marc Firek are set to write and executive produce the series.
