Jaimie Alexander and Bernard White have been tapped for major recurring roles opposite Jack Black and Tim Robbins on HBO half-hour comedy series The Brink, from Jerry Weintraub.
Directed by Jay Roach from a script by brothers Roberto and Kim Benabib, The Brink is an epic dark comedy focusing on a geopolitical crisis and its effect on three disparate and desperate men: U.S. Secretary of State Walter Hollander (Robbins); Alex Coppins (Black), a lowly Foreign Service officer; and Zeke Callahan (Pablo Schreiber), an ace Navy fighter pilot.
These three compromised souls must pull through the chaos around them to save the planet from World War III. Alexander will play Gail Sweet, a public affairs officer on an aircraft carrier. White will play General Haroon Raja, the head of the ISI; he’s an unpredictable, jealous and intelligent man with a drive to rule Pakistan.
