Lauren Graham is reportedly in talks to take over Maura Tierney's role in NBC's upcoming drama series Parenthood.

Last month, Tierney dropped out of the series after finding a lump in her breast. It later emerged that the tumour was cancerous and that she will need to undergo a series of treatments.

Reports then surfaced which suggested Helen Hunt was being lined up to take over the role. However, it has since emerged that a deal could not be made between Hunt and NBC.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, former Gilmore Girls star Graham is the latest actress to be linked to the show, which would see her star alongside Peter Krause, Erika Christensen and Dax Shepard.
