News > Family Man Gains a Cast

September 18, 2007

Written by David Morgan

According to , Annie Potts, Brendan Sexton, Sean O'Bryan and Jennifer Aspen have joined TNT's one-hour pilot Family Man, starring William H. Macy. The show is a light drama starring Macy as unlikely criminal John Parker: a respected father and pillar of his community by day and the leader of a bickering gang of burglars by night.

Potts will play his wife. Sexton will play John's nephew, Wesley, who works with him on a computer-store robbery. O'Bryan will play John's younger brother, likable but not the brightest bulb in the family, who assists John and Wesley. Aspen will play John's younger sister, a pole dancer.

Sounds like an enjoyable hour if they pull it off right.
