Drew Barrymore is moving to the Upper East Side—on Bravo, at least.

The actress will guest star in the upcoming second season of the network's scripted comedy Odd Mom Out—which was created by Jill Kargman, a.k.a. the actress' IRL sister-in-law. Kargman, who happens to be the older sister of Barrymore's estranged husband Will Kopelman, announced the news at a season two premiere event. "We really hit our stride," she told the crowd. "We're very proud of it."

Kargman plays a satirical version of herself, a mom trying to survive in the social hierarchy of New York City's UES alongside her husband, Andy. According to Bravo, Barrymore will guest star as Jill's "irreverent" neighbor Meredith, who survives a historic blizzard with Jill and Andy.

The Blended actress voiced a character on Family Guy for eight years and starred in the critically acclaimed HBO movie Grey Gardens, but she hasn't acted on a regular TV series since the short-lived 1992 soap 2000 Malibu Road.

Barrymore and Kopelman announced their split on April 2, saying in a statement, "Sadly our family is separating legally, although we do not feel this takes away from us being a family."

Another Odd Mom Out guest star in season two? Oh, just Blythe Danner, who will play Jill's mom, Sarah Kaplan.

Season two will see Jill return to work at a fashion magazine, where she'll butt heads with her former boss-slash-nemesis. Meanwhile, Andy will take time off to care for their kids, and he'll quickly realize that stay-at-home parenting is harder than he thought.

Odd Mom Out's second season premieres June 20 on Bravo.
