Victoria Justice, who plays Lola Martinez on “Zoey 101,” has signed a television and music deal with the network that will include the starring role in a new comedy series from tween show creator Dan Schneider (“iCarly,” “Zoey 101,” “Drake & Josh”) and a co-starring role in Nickelodeon original movie “Spectacular!”

The Schneider comedy will be set in a day school for the performing arts and, in a partnership with Sony BMG, will feature original music. She’ll also be showing off her pipes in “Spectacular!,” a movie about show choirs – groups that combine chorale singing with dance movements.
