"War for the Planet of the Apes" actress Judy Greer set to recur as a single mother on Hulu comedy series "Casual" Season 3. The series is from the Lionsgate and Right of Way production.

According to Variety, Greer will play a newly single mother Judy, who is wry and self-aware. Her character is forced to do multiple jobs at a digital branding firm. She is overworked and in desperate need of break and distraction, something that her new co-worker Alex Cole ("17 Again" actor Tommy Dewey) is happy to provide.

Following the death of Charles Cole ("A Serious Man" actor Fred Melamed) and the decision of Valerie Meyers ("Enough Said" actress Michaela Watkins) to move out, these surprising consequences in "Casual" Season 3 propel Valerie, Alex, and Laura Meyers ("Aquarius" actress Tara Lynne Barr) to rebel, Deadline reported. They explore different jobs, partners, and unfulfilled passions. They might be forced to maintain boundaries or revert to the comfort of co-dependency to be able to adjust a new normal.

Zander Lehmann created "Casual" TV series alongside executive producers Jason Reitman, Zander Lehmann, Helen Estabrook, and the showrunner Liz Tigelaar. Lionsgate serves as the international distributor.

Greer and Watkins have previously worked on the FX series "Married." Greer also has worked with Reitman on "Men, Women & Children" dramedy in 2014 and "Jeff, Who Lives at Home" dramedy in 2011. She voices the role of Cheryl on FX's hit animated secret agent spoof "Archer," which is going into its Season 8.

Most recently, Greer can be seen in "Wilson," starring Woody Harrelson, Cheryl Hines, and Laura Dern. She will next be seen in Fox sequel "War for the Planet of the Apes," directed by Matt Reeves, which hits theaters in July. She is represented by CAA and Principato-Young Entertainment.

"Casual" is now in production with its Season 3, which is slated to premiere this summer.
