Seinfeld star Jason Alexander is set to return to TV - the funnyman is in talks to develop a small screen drama about a struggling actor.

Alexander is in negotiations with CBS network bosses to develop, produce and star in a new hour-long series, according to trade paper Variety.

The as-yet-untitled show reportedly centers around a struggling actor who joins his ex-wife's detective agency, and then becomes an expert in disguise by using his acting skills.
 
Alexander last starred as a sports show host for Listen Up in 2005 and has since guest starred in programs including Criminal Minds and The New Adventures of Old Christine.

He also recently appeared with fellow Seinfeld cast mates in an ongoing storyline on Curb Your Enthusiasm - 12 years after the hit sitcom went off the air.
