Lizzie McGuire is heading back to the small screen. Kind of.

Former tween star Hilary Duff has signed a one-year deal with NBC, Variety.com reports.

Duff, who rose to fame on the Disney Channel's "Lizzie McGuire," made a pilot for CBS in 2004 that wasn't picked up, and has since starred in this year's feature "War, Inc."
