HBO is ready to get back in the Sarah Jessica Parker business. The premium cable network has picked up the new SJP comedy pilot, “Divorce” as a series. It’s Parker’s first full television acting gig since “Sex and the City” was on HBO ten years ago.

The new comedy features Sarah Jessica Parker as Frances, a woman in New York who starts to take inventory of her life and decides that a fresh start is in order. After deciding to get a divorce, she finds out that a fresh start isn’t as easy to come by as she thought. That clean break she wants isn’t all that clean. Deadline reports that the series will co-star Thomas Hayden Church as Francis’ husband and the cast will also include Molly Shannon and Talia Balsam.

“Divorce” starts shooting in NYC later this year.
