Country star BRAD PAISLEY and STAR TREK actor ZACHARY QUINTO have joined forces to produce a new TV drama set in Nashville, Tennessee.

The odd couple created the show with writers Neal Dodson and Matt Bomer and now the project has been picked up by U.S. TV network CW.

A press release about the drama suggests the new series will focus on "an aspiring young female singer destined for stardom and a male songwriter whose career isn't as certain."

The show is scheduled to debut next year (10).

Thrilled Paisley says, "I'm very excited to portray the country music world of my favourite town, Nashville, by showing the exciting life of musicians, songwriters and performers - all very talented people."

Many current country stars will make their acting debuts on the show, according to the Celebrity hitmaker.

LARAMIE 10 YEARS LATER is a sequel to The Laramie Project, which first premiered February 2000 at the Ricketson Theatre in Denver, Colorado. The play, The Laramie Project, was the basis for the 2002 critically acclaimed HBO Original Film starring Camryn Manheim, Joshua Jackson and Christina Ricci. The sequel picks up ten years later. The attitudes and the events that have transpired over those ten years are quite shocking, as members of the Tectonic Theatre Company return to Laramie and discover that many issues are still unresolved.

In the lobby of the Winspear, I had seen a celebrity lookalike and said to my wife, "Hey, there's Sylar from Heroes. Don't let him steal your super power." To which she said, "That IS Sylar." Or, as his mother knows him, Zachary Quinto. So when I saw him in line for a drink at the Wyly, I walked up and said, "Alright, you have to let me take your picture." I held up my iPhone to do just that. Quinto took it from me like I was a dunce who'd never taken a picture of a celebrity before. He put his arm around me and pointed the phone at both of us -- even took the picture twice when the first one didn't work right. So yeah. I'd say we're friends now.

Zachary Quinto, a big movie star thanks to his role as Spock in the recent Star Trek movie, showed up to pay tribute to an old friend: Coco Peru.

He talked about being taken to one of Coco’s shows when he was just 22 (”A lot longer ago than it looks”) and remembers leaving the show “staggered by how powerful it was for me.”

Zachary paid tribute to Coco for having “the power of transcending limitations” and for being “completely unafraid.”

Quinto also read a message from Lily Tomlin (Liza Minnelli had appeared briefly on video and said to Coco: “You’re GAY? Who knew!”) and he won over the crowd for his total effort to sound somewhat like Tomlin – complete with a snort at the end a la her Ernestine character.

Some filming news..

The “Star Trek” topliner is loosely attached to his first post-”Trek” feature, the romantic dramedy “Whirligig.”

Quinto would play the lead role in the Canadian indie, which is aiming to shoot early next year.

The actor has been very selective about his next role, and with no deal in place and a number of contingencies that need to be met, it remains possible he’ll opt for another project as his first post-”Trek” feature.

The “Whirligig” project centers on a man who, in a misguided attempt to woo an older woman, befriends the woman’s adopted son.

Chaz Thorne is directing the pic, based on a screenplay by Michael Amo, creator of the Canadian supernatural series “The Listener,” which aired on NBC in the summer. Thorne, Amo and David MacLeod are producing.

UTA-repped Quinto was best known for his long-running role as Sylar on NBC adventure series “Heroes,” as well as a recurring role on “24″ before also breaking out as the new Spock in the summer hit “Trek.” He’s signed on to reprise his role as the deadpan Vulcan in a sequel.

Par’s “Trek” has provided a bump for a number of actors, particularly Chris Pine, who has been in negotiations to star in a new Jack Ryan pic for the studio, among other projects.
