Hawaii Five-0 - Season 2 - Casting News - Ed Asner gets recurring

Dec 8, 2011

Share on Reddit
Ed Asner is upgrading his status on Hawaii Five-0 from a guest star to recurring. In a very unusual series guest arc spanning 36 years, the multiple Emmy winner will guest star on CBS’ Hawaii Five-0 reboot in the spring, reprising the role of August March, which he played in an episode of the original series in 1975.

In a first for the new Hawaii Five-0, footage from the original series will be featured in Asner’s episode. It will be from the actor’s first Hawaii Five-0 appearance in an 1975 episode titled Wooden Model Of A Rat, in which August March (Asner) was an up-and-coming world class smuggler. Now a reformed man after serving 30 years in prison for murder, March lives on O’ahu and is approached by the Five-0 to assist on a smuggling case

    This is going to be good.  I've downloaded the original ep Ed was in.  I've seen the promo and it mentioned that Jack Lord's McGarrett was deceived in this.  So it'll be interest to see how Alex's McGarrett would play out. 

    If anybody is wondering what episode number the original is it's 8x15
