The comedy project, which is yet to be named, will feature “Peanut Butter Falcon,” starring Zack Gottsegen, who will play the main character’s son. Reports show that the single-camera show is based on Triple-A World Champion owner Susan Savage.

Besides Hollywood, insiders noted that Huffman had a rewarding time during her community service. The Golden Globe winner got so engrossed in helping homeless teens, and this was an eye-opening experience for her.

This happened in March 2019, when the Justice Department Investigations into rigging college admissions found the Emmy-winning actress wanting. The inside scoop showed that numerous parents paid illegal fees to get their kids into college.

Huffman first posted a $250,000 bond, and in weeks that followed, she apologized for her actions. In May 2019, the mom-of-two pleaded guilty, and at the time, her sentence was to be around four months jail term and 12 months of supervised release.

However, she bagged a 14-day sentence, a $40,00 fine, and 250 hours of community service. Huffman served her term at the Federal Correctional Institution in Dublin and was released in October 2019.
