“Swingtown” alum Michael Rady is the first actor cast in the new “Melrose Place,” says The Hollywood Reporter.
The actor landed the job Wednesday morning, a day after The CW officially greenlighted the pilot for the “Melrose” update, to be directed by Davis Guggenheim.
On the CBS Par project, written by “Smallville” executive producers/co-showrunners Todd Slavkin and Darren Swimmer, Rady will play Jonah Miller, a cute and quirky 25-year-old aspiring filmmaker who makes his living as a videographer of weddings and bar mitzvahs for the rich and famous after moving to Los Angeles with his fiancee a year ago.
