The creator and executive producer of Showtime’s “The L Word” has signed to write and produce a pilot for a spin-off series. Leisha Hailey, who plays Alice in the series, is set to star in the spin-off. The sixth and final season of the L Word is slated to run in January.

Showtime President, Robert Greenblatt said the “L Word” spinoff is in the early stages and didn’t offer up a lot of details. He did say that “L Word” creator/exec producer Ilene Chaiken is creating the spinoff, which will shoot after “L Word” wraps production on its sixth and final season this year. It will star one of the actresses from the drama series, which will end its run with an open-ended story line that will continue online. Should the spinoff get a series pickup, the story line will continue in the as-yet-untitled project.

Greenblatt said the chosen actress does not yet know it will feature her. Pressed for more details, he said only: “We’re still forming it. I’m sure I have a million e-mails already from loyal viewers about it, but we’re still in the process of figuring it out.”
