REM - Jason Isaacs Lands Lead Role

21 Feb 2011

Share on Reddit
Jason Isaacs has been cast in the NBC pilot, REM, from Lone Star creator Kyle Killen.

REM, a procedural hybrid from 20th TV, centers on the simultaneous and parallel lives of a detective (Isaacs) who can't let go of any aspect of his fractured family after a car accident.

REM will be run by 24 showrunner Howard Gordon.

Isaacs toplined Fox's pilot Pleading Guilty, also backed by 20th TV, last year.

The British actor starred in the Showtime series Brotherhood with current Chicago Code star Jason Clarke. If REM makes it to series and Code is renewed for a second season, the co-stars could be reunited on Fox.

    Why would the co-stars of Brotherhood "be reunited on Fox" if REM airs on NBC?

    This is great news, Jason Isaacs is quite charismatic, Hoard Gordon is a great showrunner and the plot seems special enough to be given some attention. I hope it'll get picked up.

    Yeah good question! Maybe in some overseas market FOX carries some Showtime? I kinda doubt it, but it's odd how Canada has channels with multiple US network shows all on one Canadian channel.

    Looking forward to this one or at least I have high hopes. Gordon doing a show with Isaacs in the lead role sounds like a great combination to me! He is one of those foreign actors I never doubt will do whatever accent he is given perfectly. It's rare I hear his natural accent slip thru at all in his roles!
