Breaking Bad alum Betsy Brandt has joined the cast of ABC's The Club, TVGuide.com has learned.
The drama pilot from Oscar-nominated screenwriter Susannah Grant (Erin Brockovich) is an upstairs-downstairs soap centered on a private country club.
Brandt, who just signed on for a recurring role on Showtime's period drama Masters of Sex, will play Leslie Holbrooke, who's been ostracized from the family after her husband left her for their father's trophy wife stepmother after squandering the club's finances, leaving the club flat broke. She's left alone with her 11 year-old son, Evan, her legal consulting practice, and her husband's crazy, wealthy family. Irreverent and funny, she's not above seeing the humor in her situation. She doesn't play sports or drink, hates the sun, and is way too outspoken to ever fit in at the Club.
