I have no idea yet if Ted Danson is returning for a second season of Damages, but now that William Hurt has reportedly joined the cast, the villain torch may be passing to a new guy.
Hurt is currently the bad guy in The Incredible Hulk, and with his stellar acting abilities, I can’t think of a better choice to join the already brilliant cast of Glenn Close, Rose Byrne and Tate Donovan.
From the press release:
Hurt joins Damages for a season-long arc as a new client of Patty Hewes (Glenn Close). Details of Hurt’s character are being kept under wraps, but insiders have intimated that Hurt’s character will not only share a professional past with Hewes, but a personal one as well.
Production on the new season begins on July 24th, although no episodes will be seen until early 2009.
Wow, what a lucky catch for them. I'm guessing Hurt got tired of all the stupid reimagining going on in Hollywood and decided to do something with an original idea or two.
Certainly looking forward to this being back on the air!
