Thanks to iZombie_Fan for the heads up.
Philip Winchester is set to topline the next installment in Dick Wolf’s Chicago franchise for NBC, tentatively titled Chicago Law. He is the first actor cast in the legal drama, eyed for a potential launch during the 2016-2017 season, likely in midseason.
Strike Back star Winchester was among the most sought actors last pilot season, ultimately signing for the lead in NBC’s drama pilot The Player, which went to series. While the show did not last, I hear NBC brass wanted to keep the actor in the fold and stepped up with an offer for Chicago Law as Winchester was weighing in other pilot offers.
