The single-camera project from Raising Hope writer/EP Greg Garcia follows a meek fast food worker who decides to become a super hero.
Clyde is one of a pair of pilots Garcia has with the Eye Network; the other is an untitled multi-cam about a recently divorced man living with his parents.
In addition to playing Ron in the eight Potter films, Grint lent his voice to a 2012 episode of American Dad!.
