Doubt Is Alive and, Maybe, Well

We still may see Laverne Cox play a lawyer on TV yet.

Katherine Heigl (who can currently be seen in Jenny’s Wedding), who attempted a comeback via NBC last season – with the Homeland-ish State of Affairs – will be trying again next season, but with CBS.

La Heigl will lead Doubt, a new legal show (from two former executive producers of TV’s Grey’s Anatomy) will center on a smart and chic and successful boutique-firm lawyer who becomes romantically entangled with a client who may or may not be guilty of a brutal crime. That client was originally going to be portrayed by Teddy Sears, but the actor has moved on and will appear on The CW’s The Flash come the new season.

Update: Steven Pasquale (TV’s The Good Wife) has been cast as the client Heigl crosses the line with over and over.

He will be playing a decent and altruistic doctor, who may be guilty of murdering a 15-yeard-old many, many years ago.
