During a recent interview with the Direct, Jeffrey Pierce – who played Joel’s brother Tommy in the video game and appeared as Perry in the TV adaptation – reflected on the early stages of the drama.
Questioned on whether he was in the running to play Tommy again for the TV show, he revealed that Mahershala was in talks to take the lead role.
‘I think initially they had talked to Mahershala Ali about playing Joel, which is an obvious cue that I’m not going to play Tommy…’ he told The Direct.
Aside from the gritty drama, we’ll soon be seeing Pedro flex his comedy muscles once again, in upcoming flick Drive-Away Dolls, beside Matt Damon.
According to IndieWire, the pair will be leading a star-studded cast including Margaret Qualley, Beanie Feldstein and Bill Camp.
Ethan Coen will be helming the flick, and wrote the script with wife Tricia Cooke – marking his first film without brother Joel Coen.
The film is thought to follow Jamie, an uninhibited free spirit, who is dealing with a breakup with a girlfriend, and her pal Marian.
They embark on a spontaneous roadtrip but find themselves in hot water when they cross a group of criminals on their way to Tallahassee.
Bring it on.
