Tony Shalhoub may no longer be BrainDead. Deadline reports the actor has joined Amazon’s new pilot The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
The dramedy comes from Gilmore Girls creator Amy Sherman-Palladino and follows Miriam “Midge” Maisel (Rachel Brosnahan), a young woman who starts doing stand-up comedy in 1950s New York.
Shalhoub will play “Abe Weissman, Miriam’s father, an academic and intellectual who believes in books and facts and speaking as little as possible.”
What do you think? Are you a fan of Tony Shalhoub? Would you watch The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel?
I don’t know if this means the end of Braindead because I don’t know what happened to his character on the show. Hopefully, it does.
