As a new age guru

Courteney Cox is reportedly developing a new sitcom for ITV.

The Friends star is set to shoot a pilot of the show next year with British production house Big Talk.

Provisionally titled Truthing, the comedy is set in a new age healing retreat led by a charismatic American founder.

The series will be written by Mark Chappell, whose credits include The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret and the snooker comedy-drama The Rat Pack. He has also been working on a six-part series called Bliss, which he co-created with David Cross.

According to Hollywood website Deadline, which broke the news, ITV won the rights to the series in a 'competitive situation' with other broadcasters.

After Friends, Cox had a hit with Cougar Town, which has just ended its six-season run, leaving her free to work with Big Talk, whose credits include Rev, Spaced and Raise By Wolves.
