Jane Levy has landed the lead role in upcoming ABC comedy pilot Suburgatory.

The network picked up the pilot from Parks And Recreation producer Emily Kapnek last month.

Deadline now reports that Levy will play Tessa, a teenage girl who is forced to move from her childhood home of Manhattan to the suburbs.

The actress recently made her TV acting debut on Showtime's Shameless, playing the recurring role of Mandy Milkovich.

The Suburgatory pilot will be produced by Warner Bros. TV.
