  • Oscar winner Melissa Leo (The Fighter), Sebastian Stan (Captain America) and Clark Duke (The Office) have been cast on the dark comedy pilot written by Dave Flebotte. Leo will play Goldie, a brassy comedy club owner who rules over her business with an iron fist and nurtures her comedians with tough love. Stan will play Clay, a funny, charming comedian on the rise whose biggest is irrelevancy. He is idolized by his ex and fellow comedian Cassie (Ari Graynor). Duke will play Larry, a ballsy young comedian from Boston who moves to L.A. with the hopes of making it big.
