Gabourey Sidibe missed winning the Oscar for Best Actress, but she's already moved on: The Precious star is set to guest star in Showtime's new series The Big C, the network announced Tuesday. The show is a "dark comedy" about an affluent suburb in Connecticut, and stars Laura Linney as a teacher who's rebounding from cancer.
