Vanessa Hudgens is getting back to work. The Grease Live alum has been tapped to star in NBC's DC Comics comedy pilot Powerless. The comedy is about the reality of working life for a normal, powerless person in a world of super heroes and villains. Hudgens will portray Emily Locke, an insurance claims adjuster who likes to fly under the radar and just get her work done. She finds herself increasingly exasperated by the disruptive antics of the various Super Heroes that proliferate in her city. For Hudgens, the role marks her first gig since she earned critical praise for her role as Rizzo in Fox's Grease Live. Should Powerless go to series, it would mark her first small screen regular role.
