David Schwimmer made his mark on television playing geeky professor Ross in Friends, but his fans might have to get used to a completely different Schwimmer character on screen: a Kardashian!
Yes, Schwimmer will star in Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuck's new mini-series called American Crime Story: The People v. O.J. Simpson as Robert Kardashian, the late father of Kim Kardashian, who was also Simpson's confidante and the attorney.
Cuba Gooding Jr. will play Simpson while Sarah Paulson of American Horror Story fame will play prosecutor Marcia Clark.
The series is based on Jeffrey Toobin's best-selling novel The Run of His Life: The People v. O.J. Simpson. It will have 10 episodes, seen from the perspective of the lawyers behind the scenes of the infamous trial.
The miniseries "explores the chaotic behind-the-scenes dealings and manoeuvring on both sides of the court, and how a combination of prosecution overconfidence, defence shrewdness, and the LAPD's history with the city's African-American community gave a jury what it needed: reasonable doubt."
