Emmy-winning comedy series 'Will and Grace' will return for an eighth season after a deal was reached with the producers and cast members.

Reports had previously suggested that the leading actors, Eric McCormack, Debra Messing, Sean Hayes and Megan Mullally, were set to face pay cuts, but the new one-year deal is reported to have resulted in salary increases for the stars of the show.

According to reports, each of the lead actors will secure between $13m and $15m for the full season, which is approximately $600,000 per episode.

It is believed that the agreed new season will be the last for the popular television series. 'Will and Grace' won an Emmy award for Best Comedy Series in 2000.
