Mind Kaling's new Hulu series Not Suitable for Work has looked to the stage for much of its new cast, with Deadline reporting that Victor Garber, Laura Bell Bundy, Constance Wu, Bhavesh Patel, Greg Germann, Judy Gold, and Michael Benjamin Washington have joined the project in recurring roles.

The casting sets a cross-medium Legally Blonde reunion. Garber, a Broadway vet last seen in Hello, Dolly!, played the womanizing Professor Callahan in the 2001 movie Legally Blonde, while Bundy (currently Off-Broadway starring in Romy & Michelle The Musical) earned a Tony nomination starring as unlikely lawyer superstar Elle Woods in the movie's 2007 Broadway musical adaptation. Garber will play Wes Dryden, the host of an investigative journalism program, while Bundy will be mom to series lead Ella Hunt.

The cast is also set to feature Avantika, Will Angus, Jack Martin, Nicholas Duvernay, SNL alum and soon-to-be Off-Broadway The Comedy Series star Ego Nwodim, Harry Richardson, Stella Everett, May Hong, and Emilia Suárez. The series tracks five 20-somethings starting careers and lives in Manhattan's Murray Hill.

Kaling created and is executive producing the series, along with showrunner Charlie Grandy (The Sex Lives of College Girls) and 3 Arts Entertainment's Howard Klein.

A premiere date has not yet been revealed.
