Mrs. Travolta could be heading back to primetime. Kelly Preston has scored the lead role in the ABC comedy pilot "Keep Calm And Karey On," according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Preston will play Karey, "a vibrant mother to three adopted kids -- including two from her screw-up brother -- who is overwhelmed in her quest to be a good parent to the needy flock who don't always want or respect her input." Karey is the one bright spot in a spectacularly dysfunctional family that includes thieves and addicts. Her mother will be played by Jane Seymour, and Majandra Delfino will appear as her sister Penny.
