Lea Michelle is to star in the comedy-horror anthology alongside a host of big names.
Michelle will be joined by Emma Roberts (American Horror Story), Jamie Lee Curtis (True Lies), Joe Manganiello (True Blood), Abigail Breslin (Little Miss Sunshine) and Keke Palmer (Akeelah and the Bee). Popstar Ariana Grande will also have a recurring role.
According to Billboard, Scream Queens, which is the brainchild of Glee and American Horror Story creator Ryan Murphy, will consist of 15 hour long episodes with the plot centering on a series of murders on a college campus.
Murphy will reunite with a number of actors and crew members who have previously worked on his other projects including Michelle, who stars in Glee and is currently filming the show's final season. Scream Queens will be her first role after the hit musical-comedy series.
Murphy has also previously worked with Roberts on American Horror Story's third and fourth seasons.
Scream Queens is slated to air this autumn.
