Body Politic - Casting News

Share on Reddit

Winter, spring, summer, fall, it's pilot season and David Silver is keepin' it together.

Though the "Beverly Hills 90210" vet is currently a regular on FOX's "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles," The CW confirms that Brian Austin Green has just secured a role in their "Body Politic" project.

The series, if green lit, will follow young government staffers living and working in Washington, D.C.

Green will play Lucky, a D.C. insider who knows everyone in town.

The notorious BAG is just one of several names already attached to "Politic" including Gabrielle Union, Tim Matheson, "Friday Night Lights"' Minka Kelly, "Veronica Mars"' Jason Dohring and "Six Degrees"' Jay Hernandez.

So, does this mean Silverado will never return to Beverly Hills for an appearance as Donna Martin's loving husband on the new "90210"? Not really. He told me he is down and could easily do both.

More importantly for "Terminator" fans, does Green's "Politic" casting signal that the fate of "The Sarah Connor Chronicles" is sealed? Not necessarily. No doubt BAG's involvement in "Politic" is in second position to "T:TSCC," meaning that if "T:TSCC" gets another season, that would be his first priority. Still, the fact that he's looking around is not a good sign for the FOX show.

No word yet on whether BAG will bless us with a couple killer West Bev spin moves on any of his current or future projects...

The cast of The CW's drama pilot "The Body Politic" starring "Friday Night Lights"' Minka Kelly, "Veronica Mars"' Jason Dohring and Tim Matheson continues to fill out.

The network confirms that Gabrielle Union, whom we last saw on TV in "Ugly Betty" (remember, as Wilhelmina's loony little sister) and who just began a multi-episode run on "Life," has been cast in "Politic" as a legislative aide to a congressman.

Her character will no doubt cross paths with Minka Kelly's Hope, the show's lead, who moves from Michigan to Washington where her estranged father (Matheson) is a U.S. senator who's just been tapped as Attorney General. Hope will take a position working under him.

Dohring will play a reporter for The Washington Post.

Jay Hernandez ("Six Degrees"), The CW verifies, will be on the series as well.
