Matthew Lillard will co-star opposite John Stamos in NBC‘s drama pilot I Am Victor. Written by Mark Goffman based on Jo Nesbo’s book, it centers on Victor Port (Stamos), a high powered divorce attorney with a unique view of relationships. Lillard, repped by Paradigm, plays Victor’s best friend Elliott, an off-beat, off-books former cop who helps Victor acquire information and things, legally and otherwise.
Wendy Moniz (Damages) has been cast in ABC‘s drama pilot Betrayal. Written by David Zabel and directed by Patty Jenkins, Betrayal centers on Sara (Hannah Ware), a beautiful but unhappily married female photographer who begins a torrid affair with Jack, a lawyer for a powerful family. Moniz, repped by Sanders.Armstrong.Caserta and Innovative, plays Jack’s wife Elaine, the daughter of the powerful Terence Karsten (James Cromwell). Also cast in the pilot are Elizabeth McLaughlin and Braeden Lemasters as Elaine and Jack’s 16-year-old twins.

Congrats Matthew! One of my favorite actors. Scream, SLC Punk, Without a Paddle, Trouble with the Curve, The Descendants, Lillard always delivers. If CMT wasn’t the redneck channel, The Hard Life would have been picked up in 2010. I saw that presentation, one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. Congrats, man.
Hi Zach, would be very interested in hearing more about The Hard Life, drop me an email? MLO(AT)GMAIL(DOT)COM
Nice to see that “I am Victor” won’t simply have Stamos as the lone star, adding Matthew gets me more hopeful on how the show will turn out.
Great get by NBC.
Stamos is a very good actor on tv and Broadway. He will do a great job and not because of Mathew being cast in the show!
Yeah, Lillard seems to be doing a good job growing as an actor and getting credibility in serious stuff. He surprised me in Descendants because I swear I hadn’t seen him in anything in years. Who would’ve guessed that out of all the Scream kids he’d be the one doing solid work nearly 20 years later.
Smart of NBC to take advantage of the government subsidies for hiring differently abled people.
