The ‘Man on the Inside’ star will once again head to a retirement community.
Ted Danson is headed back into a retirement community — but not to solve a mystery.
The Emmy winner and A Man on the Inside star has joined the cast of an Apple TV comedy series starring Elizabeth Banks. Rob Delaney (Catastrophe) also stars.
The currently untitled series from creators Liz Heldens and Matt Ward centers on Heidi (Banks), a recently divorced woman who is looking to “secure a lively second act for herself and her kids,” the show’s logline reads. That’s derailed to some degree when Heidi finds herself “coordinating her father’s retirement community sexcapades,” where she forms an alliance with the son of her dad’s girlfriend.
Danson will play Heidi’s dad, he of the aforementioned sexcapades. Details of Delaney’s role haven’t been disclosed.
The setting (though not the premise) of the Apple TV series echoes that of A Man on the Inside’s first season, in which Danson’s character is hired by a private investigator (played by Lilah Richcreek Estrada) to investigate a theft inside a retirement community. Netflix ordered a third season of A Man on the Inside earlier this year; Danson will appear on both shows.
Danson’s recent credits also include a recurring role on Curb Your Enthusiasm, NBC’s Mr. Mayor そして The Good Place and voice work on American Dad. The two-time Emmy winner is repped by WME, Constellation Media Group and Ziffren Brittenham.
20th Television is producing the Apple TV series. Heldens (Will Trent) and Ward (Best Medicine) executive produce with Banks, Max Handelman and Krissy Wall for Brownstone Productions; pilot director Jonathan Krisel; Quinn Haberman of Heldens’ Selfish Mermaid company; and Jason Winer and Jon Radler for Small Dog Picture Company.
