Steven Pasquale to play the new male lead on CBS’ re-tooled Doubt
Earlier this summer, CBS decided to give courtroom drama pilot Doubt—which it passed on last year—another shot. For writers Tony Phelan and Joan Rater (who are also Grey’s Anatomy producers), the first step in accomplishing that was to recast the show’s leads. First, they brought in Katherine Heigl, who was fresh off the cancellation of NBC’s State Of Affairs. Now, according to Deadline, they’ve replaced the male lead with The Good Wife and Rescue Me’s Steven Pasquale—though, if we wanted to be snarky, we’d point out that he’s also known for playing the terrifying Dr. Face-Hands on Do No Harm.
