George Michael Signs Up For New US Sit-com

Opposite Jonny Lee Miller...

Saturday 12th May 2007

George Michael has revealed he?s starring in a new American TV sit-com with Trainspotting star Johnny Lee Miller.

The singer has no previous acting experience (unless you count the odd Wham! video) but has signed up to the new series as part of a hectic upcoming schedule.

He says, ?I'm going to have the most phenomenal year - even though there are people who'd like me to experience a tough time.

"There's an American tour planned and I'm starring in a big US comedy drama called Ellie Stone with Johnny Lee Miller. The writers want to name each episode after my songs."

Sounds, er, brilliant!

  • Could this be what you are talking about? http://www.thefutoncritic.com/devwatch.aspx?id=eli_stone George is so involved in this that he can't even get the title right.

  • Well if George Michael is going to be in a US sitcom, could we please have the cleaned up version of him as is shown in the above picture? In all the other pictures I've seen of him lately it looks like he's been living in his car or something.

  • Here is the cast list from the ABC press release announcing the show at today's "upfronts". Still no mention of George. I wonder if he's managed to twist some tentative musical contribution to the show into a starring role. Jonny Lee Miller: Eli Stone Victor Garber : Jordan Wethersby Natasha Henstridge: Taylor Wethersby Loretta Devine : Patti Sam Jaeger: Matt Dowd Laura Benanti Beth Keller James Saito: Dr. Chen http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news.aspx?id=20070515abc01
