Holly Hunter may star in a new TNT cop drama, Grace. The pilot, which was written by Nancy Miller, will focus on a police detective who attempts to redeem her life after a visit from an angel.

Hunter, who is most known for her film roles, won an Academy Award for best actress for The Piano in 1994 and has been nominated four times total. While she has appeared in numerous TV-movies, this is her first attempt at a television series.

After TNT’s success with crime drama, The Closer - starring another actress famous for her film roles, Kyra Sedgwick - it is no surprise that they are interested in Grace.
