Los Angeles - Actor Ashton Kutcher, the brand new husband of Demi Moore who is 15 years his senior, is planning to make a television sitcom about life with an older woman.
Kutcher, 27, is set to film a pilot episode of a comedy show tentatively titled 30 Year Old Grandpa for the US television network Fox, Daily Variety said on Tuesday.
Plans for the show come just days after Moore, 42, and Kutcher, 27, confirmed that they married on September 24.
The new show, to be written by Holly Hester who also penned The Drew Carey Show, tells the story of a young man who marries an older woman and becomes the stepfather to kids nearly his age.
In real life, Kutcher is now stepfather to Moore's three daughters by her famous ex-husband Bruce Willis: Rumer, 17; Scout, 14; and Tallulah, 11.
But Grandpa will be set in Chicago and will not focus on the show business industry that is home to Kutcher and Moore.
"It started out as an idea about a mother and daughter having kids at the same time," said co-executive producer Karey Burke. "It then dawned on us that the guy's point of view on this was the comedy hook."
Kutcher will co-executive produce the show along with Jason Goldberg and Burke for 20th Century Fox TV, Variety said.
