MTV Studios have announced that the first in a series of spin-offs planned for the 2000s cult animation hit Daria is coming soon.

Jodie will star, and be executive produced by Tracee Ellis Ross, and follow the story of Daria’s friend Jodie as she “comes into her own and enters the workplace in her first post-college job in tech.”

“Being able to give voice to fresh, feminist and unexplored stories of young women excites me,” Ross says in a statement.

“Jodie will spin off from the cult classic Daria, and with the brilliant, sweet and sarcastic black-girl magic that is Jodie Landon, we will feature a diverse cast, comprised mainly of unapologetically smart and ambitious young female characters who are vulnerable and flawed and interesting and funny.”

“As a very cool bonus, Jodie will be the first adult animated show in almost 20 years that will star a black woman. It will be a smart, funny workplace comedy full of commentary about everything from gentrification to sex to tech to call-out culture.”

Daria was originally a spin-off itself, spawning from another Mike Judge creation; Beavis and Butthead.

Daria ran from 1997 – 2001 for five seasons, wrapping with a movie that saw the Morgendorffer sisters preparing for college.
