Christina Applegate lands new TV role!

Christina Applegate has been cast in the NBC’s untitled Emily Spivey project.

The single camera comedy takes an irreverent look at parenthood through the point of view of an acerbic working mother (Applegate), along with her stay-at-home husband and opinionated parents.

Applegate’s TV credits include a starring role in Samantha Who, Jesse and long-running Fox hit, Married with Children.

Reports last month claimed Applegate who has been engaged to musician Martyn LeNoble for just over a year will tie knot “in the next few months”.

Christina and Martyn recently welcomed their first child together daughter Sadie Grace.

“It will happen in the new few months,” an insider told American tabloid the National Enquirer.

“She spent the last months before Sadie arrived on bed rest and used much of the time to concentrate on her wedding.”

It’s believed Christina and Martyn want to tie the knot on a beach in Malibu, and are keen to keep the ceremony low-key and invite a small number of guests.

“She has no doubt they’ll be together forever,” the source added.
