Cristin Milioti is ditching Ted Mosby! The 28-year-old, who joined the cast of “How I Met Your Mother” at the end of season 8 as the infamous wife of Ted, has been cast as the co-lead in a new pilot from NBC, “A to Z.”
NBC ordered the pilot in early January, and it’s described by TV Line as a “whimsical romantic comedy set in the world of an online dating company.” The series will focus on the relationship of a young couple named Andrew and Zelda – but more specifically their relationship from “meeting to breakup.”
According to Deadline, Cristin Milioti will be playing Zelda, a lawyer at a small public-advocacy law firm. And despite the fantasy name, the character is described as a “realist.” The site continues that Zelda alternates between “serious and hilarious” and doesn’t believe in “destiny or fate.”
“How I Met Your Mother” is currently in the process of finishing up its ninth and final season. Milioti’s character has been lightly sprinkled throughout the first half of the season, immediately charming viewers and becoming a fan favorite. She was recently the focus of the CBS series’ special 200th episode, which revealed what she has been doing for the past eight years – even showing the few times that she accidentally crossed paths with her future husband, Ted.
While Milioti’s character name on “How I Met Your Character” is still under tight wraps, with Cristin Milioti dishing to Entertainment Weekly that she still doesn’t even know the big mystery.
“I don’t know if it’s because they think I’m a terrible liar, but no, I have not been told that,” she explained. “It’s very much on lockdown.”
