Kerry
Washington
is
headed
to
Wisteria
Lane.
The
Scandal
alum
is
attached
to
executive
produce
a
spinoff
of
the
ABC
dramedy
series
Desperate
Housewives
currently
in
development
at
Onyx
Collective,
E!
News
can
confirm.
The
new
series,
titled
Wisteria
Lane,
is
described
as
a
fun,
sexy,
darkly
comedic
soap/mystery
in
the
vein
of
the
original
series,
which
aired
from
2004
to
2012.
Similarly,
the
reimagining
focuses
on
an
eclectic
group
of
neighbors
with
secrets
hidden
beneath
the
surface
of
their
picture-perfect,
Instagram-friendly
lives.
Created
by
Marc
Cherry,
Desperate
Housewives
starred Felicity
Huffman, Teri
Hatcher, Eva
Longoria, Marcia
Cross and Nicollette
Sheridan,
earning
seven
Emmys
and
three
Golden
Globes
during
its
eight-season
run.
In
fact,
Marc
recently
hinted
at
developing
his
own
revival
of
the
series,
admitting
he
had
“a
couple
of
ideas
to
do
it”—though
none
seem
to
involve
the
original
cast.
“I
would
probably
want
to
do
the
idea
maybe
in
an
earlier
decade,”
he
told
People
in
November.
“Because
the
character
I
miss
writing
the
most
is
actually
Wisteria
Lane.
That
was
the
most
fun
playground
anyone
in
the
history
of
television
has
ever
had,
because
we
owned
the
whole
street.
I
know
that
street
like
the
back
of
my
hand.”
