Charles Michael Davis (The Originals, Younger) has joined the cast of ABC legal drama, For The People, during its upcoming second season. The role will be a series regular one and will not interfere with his series regular role on Younger as Deadline notes filming for both series will not clash. Younger was recently announced to be moving from TVLand to Paramount Network for the upcoming sixth season.
Davis will play Ted, the new investigator in the Public Defender’s office. The drama returns midseason on ABC.
Set in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (a.k.a. “The Mother Court”), the new Shondaland series show follows six talented young lawyers working on opposite sides of the law and handling the most high-profile and high-stakes federal cases in the country.
“For The People” stars Britt Robertson as Sandra Bell, Jasmin Savoy Brown as Allison Adams, Ben Rappaport as Seth Oliver, Susannah Flood as Kate Littlejohn, Wesam Keesh as Jay Simmons, Regé-Jean Page as Leonard Knox, Ben Shenkman as Roger Gunn, Hope Davis as Jill Carlan, Vondie Curtis-Hall as Judge Nicholas Byrne and Anna Deavere Smith as Tina Krissman.
