Justin Timberlake to play Chuck Barris in Confessions TV series
It's a new adaptation of Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, and Charlie's not involved in any way, but I figured I might as well mention it.
Apple TV+ isn't gonging a new project with Justin Timberlake.
Fresh off of Palmer, the well-received tearjerker starring the "Mirrors" singer, the streamer is developing a new drama series based on The Gong Show creator Chuck Barris' memoir Confessions of a Dangerous Mind. Timberlake is attached to star as Barris, who claimed in the book to have been an assassin for the CIA. The series will mark his first regular TV role.
[...] David Hollander (Ray Donovan) will serve as co-showrunner on the series with Jon Worley (Justified, SEAL Team), who penned the pilot. A premiere date has not yet been set. (Source)
