NBC has confirmed to HuffPost Entertainment that a planned sitcom project with Bill Cosby is no longer in development. The network had no further comment on the matter. A representative for Cosby was not immediately available for comment.
NBC’s move comes in the wake of sexual assault allegations that have been levied against the 77-year-old comedian during the last month. Earlier on Wednesday, Netflix also postponed the release of Cosby’s new stand-up special, “Bill Cosby 77.”
Plans for Cosby’s potential new NBC series were first announced in January of this year. As Deadline.com reported at the time, the show’s focus would be Cosby, who was set to star as “the patriarch of a multi-generational family.”
