Jason Behr Online

Jason Behr has landed the lead in Fox’s drama pilot “Company Man,” previously known as “NSA Innocent.” “Man,” from 20th Century Fox TV and Realtime Prods., centers on a family man (Behr) recruited by the National Security Agency as a spy within the defense contracting company he works for. Also cast in the pilot is Annie Wersching (”General Hospital”) as his wife.

The pilot originally was scheduled to go into production two weeks ago with Stephen Moyer as the lead. Following a table read March 12, the production start date was pushed in order to rework and recast the lead (HR 3/13). The main character and his wife, a role that had not been cast, are now significantly younger. Other major tweaks also have been made to Bob Cochran and David Ehrman’s original script by the project’s executive producers, including Cochran, Joel Surnow and Howard Gordon.

“Roswell” alum Behr’s upcoming features include “Skinwalkers,” “Senseless” and “The Tattooist.”
