It revolves around a divorced teacher (Curtis), a good man who tries to do right by everyone in his life, and a female guidance counselor. Curtis, managed by Joe Rice, joins Frank Dillane and Alycia Debnam Carey who were recently cast as the woman’s children.

I want it like now :(
ReplyDeleteCliff is perfect for the lead!
ReplyDeleteGreat actor that can show a wide range without losing depth and subtlety.
Looking forward to TWD 2.0!
Good casting. Looking forward to more news.
ReplyDeleteI think he will die in one of the first 3 seasons, unlike Rick...
ReplyDeleteGreat said. Such a actor, and underrated. I think the tv-roles i have been given besides Gang Related have mostly been lame. He has as you say range. That you can certainly see in many of his roles in movies like Traning Day.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping being on a project that I assume will have great writing and real dramatic actors' moments will let him show exactly how brilliant an actor he really is!
ReplyDeletePrepare to see familiar Zombies lol
