Deadline

The New Girl and Happy Endings alum has fielded at least a dozen offers this pilot season, according to Deadline, but has decided to pick an untitled multi-camera comedy pilot in which he plays the business manager of a young pop superstar, who moves in with him and his wife. Deadline says Wayans' deal "is believed to be the biggest talent deal so far this pilot season....The rich pact is said to include points on the show and, if the pilot goes to series, a two-year first-look producing deal with CBS TV Studios."
