File this under: How I Met Your First Wife. Per THR, TV Land has cast How I Met Your Mother‘s Alyson Hannigan and Smash‘s Megan Hilty in The First Wives Club TV show.

According to the report, Hannigan, who played Willow Rosenberg on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, has been cast as an English professor, Maggie. Hilty will play Kim, a formerly successful actress.

Here is more from The Hollywood Reporter:

Hannigan (Buffy) will portray Maggie, an English professor at a San Francisco university and aspiring poet. The character is bright but frustrated, who struggles to put excitement back into her flagging marriage. When one of her old college friends dies, she is galvanized to finally make changes, starting with leaving her husband and tackling life with a renewed sense of adventure.

Hilty, who returns to TV Land after a starring role in the cabler’s I Shudder pilot (which didn’t go forward), will play Kim, a formerly successful actress who “aged out” of Hollywood. Needy and vulnerable, she works hard at staying fit and gorgeous, still hoping for that breakout role, while doing cheesy commercials. Divorced, with an 8-year-old son, Kim is happy to reconnect with old friends.

TV Land ordered The First Wives Club TV series pilot on March 3, 2016. TV Land describes it as a fresh adaptation of the 1996 feature film starring Goldie Hawn, Bette Midler, and Diane Keaton.

New Girl‘s Rebecca Addelman is writing. Sex and the City‘s Jenny Bicks is executive producing.
