| comme vous le voyiez il va jouer dans une nouvelle serie "Raising the Bar" en voici plus d'infos: | Citation: | TNT Heads to the Courtroom with New Steven Bochco Legal Drama Series RAISING THE BAR, Starring Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Gloria Reuben and Jane Kaczmarek
TNT has given the greenlight to RAISING THE BAR, the latest series from the mastermind of legal dramas, Emmy®-winner Steven Bochco. The series, which stars Mark-Paul Gosselaar (NYPD Blue), Gloria Reuben (ER) and Jane Kaczmarek (Malcolm in the Middle), follows the lives and cases of young lawyers who have been friends since law school, but who now work on opposing sides. TNT has ordered 10 episodes of RAISING THE BAR, which was created by Bochco and lawyer/writer David Feige (Indefensible). It comes to TNT from ABC Studios and Bochco Media, with Bochco serving as executive producer. Bochco and Feige wrote the story for the pilot episode, and Feige wrote the script. The pilot was directed by Jesse Bochco (The Closer). The series is slated to premiere later this year.
“RAISING THE BAR is the sort of smart, highly charged legal drama for which Steven Bochco is known and an ideal fit for our line-up,” said Michael Wright, senior vice president in charge of the content creation group for TNT, TBS and TCM. “Steven and the exceptional cast and crew he’s assembled have put together an excellent drama, and we’re proud to add another talent-rich, entertaining series to the TNT schedule.”
In RAISING THE BAR, Gosselaar stars as Jerry Kellerman, an idealistic public defender who will stop at nothing to help those who cannot help themselves. Reuben plays Rosalind Whitman, his passionate and protective boss. Teddy Sears (Ugly Betty) is Richard Patrick Woolsley, who foregoes a cushy job in his father’s firm to work for the public defender’s office. On the opposite side, Melissa Sagemiller (Sleeper Cell) plays Michelle Ernhardt, an attorney in the DA’s office with an unassailable morality and a burning desire to see justice done. She works for assistant DA Nick Balco, played by Currie Graham (Boston Legal), a bit of a lecher who, nevertheless, has a razor-sharp knowledge of the law. They are joined by J. August Richards (Conviction) as Marcus McGrath, who will stop at nothing to put criminals behind bars. The courtroom arena in which they face off belongs to Judge Trudy Kessler, played by Kaczmarek. She is imperious and known throughout legal circles to be a little crazy, treating the courtroom as her own private fiefdom. Working for her is law clerk Charlie Sagansky, played by Jonathan Scarfe (Into the West), a man with a wealth of secrets. |

| voici une ITW de l'"acteur a propos de sa série | Citation: | J. August Richards - "Raising The Bar" Tv Series - Bostonherald.com Interview J. August Richards never thought he would have anything in common with someone like Harrison Ford.
Richards plays Marcus McGrath on TNT’s “Raising the Bar,” returning for a second season tonight at 10. But many fans still remember him as Charles Gunn on the cult hit “Angel.” Even though the drama went off the air in 2004, he is constantly approached by fans of that show.
“I don’t think I have a very accurate idea of the show’s impact,” he said in a recent telephone interview from Los Angeles. “People act like meeting me is like meeting Han Solo. The show is still kind of living on, which is a strange thing to me.”
Richards said he had to let go of his own views to play the conservative prosecutor on the TNT drama.
“I’m as liberal as they come,” Richards said. “Marcus is very conservative, very judgmental. I had to allow myself to let go of all that I was thinking about him. It was a really spiritual process in a way. For me, a character isn’t clear until I figure out the spine of who they are, and I understand someone on a quest for justice. Marcus is constantly trying to even out the scale. When you understand that, you understand everything.”
The premiere tonight pokes fun at viewer criticism of star Mark-Paul Gosselaar’s hairstyle.
“Even people who don’t know the show have a comment about his hair,” Richards said and then laughed. “Everyone was talking about his hair. I was like, ‘Is Mark-Paul Gosselaar the new Madonna ?’”
The Maryland native has wanted to be an actor since he saw the movie “King Kong” as a child. “I remember thinking and asking my father, ‘Where is that right now ? Can I go there ?’ ”
Nearly a decade ago, the Los Angeles Times followed Richards for a year to chronicle an African-American actor auditioning in Hollywood. That happened to be the year he landed “Angel.” Does he think the industry has changed since then ?
“It’s interesting. People will say to me, ‘You’re a supporting actor and when are you going to get your own show ?’ And I think, ‘What show is that ?’ There isn’t one. Inroads are being made. (Producer) Shonda Rhimes did something so revolutionary (with ABC’s ‘Grey’s Anatomy’) by having more than one person of color on the same show,” he said. “But there’s a distance to go. A distance to climb. For me specifically, it’s been amazing. I’ve been blessed to work with the best producers in the business. I cannot complain. Even slightly.”
