LOS ANGELES, Nov. 18 (UPI) -- Emmy Award-winning actor Bradley Whitford has joined the cast of the half-hour comedy pilot Happyish, Showtime announced Tuesday.
Best known for his work on the TV shows The West Wing, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip and Trophy Wife, Whitford will play the character of Jonathan Cooke on Happyish. Cooke is Thom Payne's boss and "an advertising industry legend whose success is due in equal parts to his creative genius and moral cravenness," a synopsis said.
