Jason O’Mara to play lead in US Mars?
Looks like they have someone for the lead in the US version of Life on Mars. The Hollywood reporter is reporting that Jason O’Mara who starred in Resident Evil: Extinction will play the lead in David E. Kelley’s time-travel drama pilot for ABC.
The US version of the hit BBC series sees a detective time travel back to the 1970s after his girlfriend is missing.
The project, from 20th Century Fox TV, David E. Kelley Productions and Kudos Film & Television, was ordered as a pilot this past development cycle, but production was pushed to summer because of difficulties casting the lead.
Kelley is executive-producing the pilot with Kudos’ Stephen Garrett and Jane Featherstone.
