Laura Linney to star in Jason Bateman’s Netflix crime drama
Three-time Oscar nominee, John Adams highlight, and occasional Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles star Laura Linney has joined the cast of Netflix’s new show Ozark, Deadline reports. Linney will play Wendy, the wife of producer-director Jason Bateman’s character Marty, a Chicago financial planner who ends up getting transferred to the titular geologic highland region, and then quickly embroiled in some good ol’ backwoods drug running. Netflix picked the show up in February, and is expected to air it some time in 2017.
