"American Pie" star Alyson Hannigan is set to join Jennifer Love Hewitt and Ed O'Neill on ABC's upcoming comedy series "In the Game."
Meanwhile, Emmanuelle Vaugier has been tapped for the title role in Sci Fi Channel's two-hour pilot "Painkiller Jane."
"In the Game," from Touchstone TV and Handprint Entertainment, centers on an up-and-coming sports producer (Hewitt) who unwillingly becomes an on-camera reporter on a sports TV show.
Hannigan will play the reporter's best friend. O'Neill co-stars as the show's executive producer.
Hannigan co-starred on "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and most recently starred as Sally in the London stage version of Rob Reiner's 1989 film "When Harry Met Sally... ."
This past development season, she starred in NBC's untitled Matt Tarses/Bill Wrubel comedy pilot.
Hannigan is repped by Innovative Artists and manager Steve Lovett.
"Painkiller Jane," from NBC Universal TV and MGM TV, is based on the Event Comics' series about Jane (Vaugier), a young Marine officer who gains self-healing powers when she is exposed to a biochemical weapon.
Walker Howard also is cast in the pilot.
Vaugier had recurring roles on the WB Network hits "Smallville" and "One Tree Hill" and co-starred on the network's short-lived series "My Guide to Becoming a Rock Star."
Her feature credits include "Secondhand Lions" and "40 Days and 40 Nights."
Vaugier is repped by Innovative Artists and Evolution Entertainment.
