Luke Wilson (“Charlie’s Angels”), Imogen Poots (“Need for Speed”), Rafe Spall (“Prometheus”), Peter Cambor (”NCIS: Los Angeles”) and Keisha Castle-Hughes (“Whale Rider”) are set for Cameron Crowe’s Showtime comedy pilot “Roadies”.
Written, directed, and executive produced by the “Almost Famous” helmer, the show “follows the day-to-day life of a successful rock tour as seen through the eyes of the crew members who help get the show on the road.”
Says Deadline :
Wilson will play road-weary, Peter Cambor is sleep-deprived tour manager Bill, who is five years sober and the best friend that a band could have on the road. Poots is Kelly Ann, a first-rate electrical tech with a great heart, questionable people skills and a desire to make her mark on the world.
spallCastle-Hughes plays the band’s outspoken and passionate sound mixer Donna Mancini, who every day leads her road family in their favorite ritual, “The Song of the Day.” Cambor is Milo, an offbeat American anglophile guitar tech, not big on personal hygiene, who revels in his road-worthy, slightly scuzzy charm. Spall will play Reg Whitehead, a wildly successful British financial adviser sent by management to oversee the crew’s budget, though he knows less than zero about the music business.
Crowe’s next big screen effort is the untitled Bradley Cooper/Emma Stone movie, due next year.
