The Hollywood Reporter

The Black Monday star's first-look deal already has its first project: a one-hour comedy special that she'll produce and star in. "Regina is an undeniable and brilliant force in Hollywood, both in front of and behind the camera," said Amy Israel, executive vice president of scripted programming for Showtime. "She is one of the most dynamic and fearless actors of our generation and in her work on Black Monday, she hilariously destroys every scene she's in. We are thrilled at Showtime to continue and expand our relationship with Regina as a producer and eager to get to work on what promises to be an ambitious slate."
