Miley Cyrus to star in Woody Allen's TV show

Is Miley Cyrus Woody Allen's new muse?

The US singer-actress is heading back to TV for the veteran US actor-director's upcoming untitled Amazon series.

The six-episode show is set in the 1960s and will see Cyrus, 23, acting alongside Allen and veteran actress Elaine May.

Cyrus, who recently appeared in Sofia Coppola's Netflix special A Very Murray Christmas last year, has not been seen on the small screen since her Disney Channel hit show Hannah Montana ended in 2011.
