“Orange is the New Black” creator and showrunner Jenji Kohan is on board for a fun new series for Netflix. The streaming network has green lit “G.L.O.W.” Variety has reported. Kohan will serve as an exec producer with “OITNB’s” Tara Herrmann and “G.L.O.W.” co-creators Liz Flahive (“Homeland”) and Carly Mensch (“Nurse Jackie”). Mensch and Flahive will serve as showrunners. Mensch was a writer-producer on “Weeds,” which Kohan also created.

The comedy series will be based on the 1980s female wrestling league of the same name. According to Variety, “Founded in the mid-’80s, G.L.O.W. — which stands for Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling — was a popular professional wrestling troupe on a self-titled show that ran until 1990, and also toured for live shows. Inspired by the real story behind the wrestlers, the half-hour series will be the fictionalized story of an out-of-work actress who finds one last attempt to live her dreams in the form of a weekly series about female wrestlers. ‘G.L.O.W.’ will be set in Los Angeles and is described as showcasing ‘big hair and body slams.’”

Casting this one should be fun, and taking on another series with a no-doubt large female cast of characters is certainly in Kohan’s wheelhouse. Netflix already has a semi-relationship with the former series; the 2011 documentary “GLOW: The Story of the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling” streams on the platform.

No premiere date for “G.L.O.W.” has been set yet, but “Orange is the New Black” Season 4 premieres on Netflix on June 17.
