Entertainment NOW

Entertainment Now | January 2 - 8, 2021 8 | Sunday afternoon to Season 2 — especially given the fact that the actor originally signed a one-year deal — but producers have made it clear they want Carell back as former UBA co-host Mitch Kessler, so Margulies' involvement shouldn't necessarily be inter- preted as an attempt to fill a big on-screen void. The series is one of the many productions that were delayed by COVID-19. It was reportedly in the final stages of filming Season 2's first two episodes when produc- tion was shut down on March 12, and filming finally resumed in Oc- tober. In an interview with Deadline back in August, before filming resumed, Mark Duplass ("The League"), who stars as producer Chip Black, explained that the series' writers were trying to find a way to incorporate the pan- demic into Season 2's storylines. "I know that they're also rewrit- ing, which is crazy because that's what happened in the first season," Duplass said. "They had a whole set of scripts [then] and they rewrote everything to include the #MeToo movement, and now we've got other, larger, global phenomenon to deal with. I don't know what they're doing, but I know they're rewrit- ing." Fox's fancy footwork: Fox has been busy developing a new ballet-themed dramedy but, due to scheduling conflicts, it has had to recast a few key roles. The hour-long pilot is inspired by the British reality series "Big Ballet" and is described as "a fun- ny and contemporary tale about second chances, chasing your dreams and taking back what's yours." It's about a group of un- derdogs competing to be part of a reality series that revolves around a modern remake of "Swan Lake." They may not have the traditional dancer physique, but they are cer- tainly able to add some modern edge and wit to the classic story. Tony-nominated actress Laura Benanti ("The Playboy Club") was originally cast in the role of Paula Dirks, a dancer and a for- mer VP at a major car company, who decides that "The Big Leap" is an opportunity for her to let go of her fears and explore her artis- tic side. But when production timelines shifted, Benanti was forced to exit the role due to schedule conflicts. 01/03 1 PM 1:30 2 PM 2:30 3 PM 3:30 4 PM 4:30 5 PM 5:30 6 PM 6:30 S1 S2 WTTV 4 NFL Football Jacksonville Jaguars at Indianapolis Colts Site: Lucas Oil Stadium -- Indianapolis, Ind.
