As Bethenny Frankel and Queen Latifah continue to embark on their new daytime television talk shows, viewers can also expect another well-known personality to make her network debut in the near future.

The Hollywood Reporter reports, actress and comedienne Mo’Nique and ABC Entertainment Group executive VP of series and specials, Vicki Dummer, are currently developing a syndicated talk show deal with ABC/Disney with hopes of the project premiering in September 2014.

The show will mark the Oscar Award-winner’s second stint at helming a nationally syndicated series. Previously, “The Mo’Nique Show” aired on the BET network for two seasons (2009-2011), and reportedly netted lackluster ratings prior to its cancellation.
