Sam Jaeger (Tell Me a Story, Parenthood) has joined the cast of Why Women Kill, a darkly comedic drama, per Deadline, which was created by Marc Cherry (Desperate Housewives, Devious Maids) for CBS All Access.
Why Women Kill details the lives of three women living in three different decades: a housewife in the '60s, a socialite in the '80s and a lawyer in 2018, each dealing with infidelity in their marriages. The series will examine how the roles of women have changed, but how their reaction to betrayal... has not.
Sam Jaeger will play the husband of Ginnifer Goodwin's Beth Ann. Jaeger also co-stars opposite Lucy Liu and Reid Scott.
Jaeger will play Rob. Seen in 1963. Confident and ambitious, he's Beth Ann's husband, an ex-jock who was born into a blue collar family, but who has worked his ass off to end up in a white collar world. The quintessential early 1960s catered-to husband, he enjoys his position as benevolent provider, provided Beth Ann remains the subservient homemaker.
