Deadline writes that newcomer Billie Lourd has signed on for FOX's upcoming horror-comedy anthology series SCREAM QUEENS, from Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, Ian Brennan and Dante Di Loreto, the executive producers of GLEE and "American Horror Story."

Jamie Lee Curtis ("Halloween"), Emma Roberts ("American Horror Story: Freak Show"), Joe Manganiello ("True Blood," "Magic Mike XXL"), Emmy Award and Golden Globe Award nominee Lea Michele (GLEE), Academy Award nominee Abigail Breslin ("Little Miss Sunshine," "Zombieland," "August: Osage County"), Keke Palmer ("Akeela and the Bee," "Masters of Sex") and Nick Jonas ("Kingdom") were previously announced in starring roles in the limited series. Additionally, Grammy Award nominee and actress Ariana Grande will guest-star in a recurring role.

The first installment in the new anthology series revolves around a college campus which is rocked by a series of murders. Production is scheduled to begin in the spring, with the series premiering in Fall 2015 on FOX.

NYU grad Billie is the daughter of STAR WARS actress Carrie Fisher and CAA managing director Bryan Lourd. This will be her first foray into the business, though there are rumors circling she will appear in the newest STAR WARS film as a young 'Princess Leia'.
