Victoria Justice is moving from Nickelodeon to MTV.

The “Victorious” star has been cast as the lead in a new pilot, “Eye Candy,” based on the 2004 R.L. Stine thriller.

Justice will star as Lindy, “a beautiful but reclusive hacker whose blog exposes everything from terrorist plots to suspected killers.”

“Convinced by her roommate to begin online dating, Lindy is targeted by a dangerous cyber stalker and believes one of her suitors to be the culprit,” says the network. “When things take a deadly turn, she teams up with the city’s cyber-crime unit to catch the killer.”

The show will be directed and executive produced by Catherine Hardwicke, who helmed Twilight and 13.

“Well I guess the cat’s out of the bag!” Justice tweeted after the news broke late Friday. “I’m beyond excited 2 be working w/ @MTV on this amazing project.”
