Emmy winner Bobby Cannavale has been tapped as the lead of M.O.N.Y., NBC's drama pilot from Tom Fontana and Barry Levinson, which is being directed by Spike Lee.
Meanwhile, Rachelle Lefevre has landed the female lead in Life on Mars, David E. Kelley's drama pilot for ABC, Malcolm in the Middle star Bryan Cranston has signed on for the lead in AMC's drama pilot Breaking Bad, Justice co-star Rebecca Mader has landed a co-starring role on ABC's drama pilot Mr. and Mrs. Smith and former "ER" co-star Michael Michele has been cast in the ABC drama pilot Judy's Got a Gun.
M.O.N.Y., from NBC Universal TV Studio, centers on a socially conscious New York public advocate (Cannavale) who is thrust into the position of becoming interim mayor and struggles to balance his moral center with the hardball realities of New York politics.
