Britisher Cast As Female Lead in David E. Kelley’s LEGALLY MAD!!
I am – Hercules!!
English actress Charity Wakefield, who played Marianne Dashwood in the 2008 miniseries version of “Sense and Sensibility,” has been cast in the central role of American lawyerette Brady Hamm in David E. Kelley’s latest legal hourlong “Legally Mad.”
The NBC project revolves around a father-daughter lawyering team. Announcement of who will play the dad is expected any day now.
Jon Seda (“Homicide”) and Kristin Chenoweth (“Pushing Daisies”) have also recently joined the “Mad” cast.
Kelley, a lawyer who got into the TV game by scripting “L.A. Law,” previously created the law-centric dramedys “Picket Fences,” “The Practice,” “Ally McBeal” and “Boston Legal.”
