As a movie enthusiast with over three decades of film-watching under my belt, I must say that the addition of Wade Briggs to “The Rainmaker” series at USA Network is a move that has me sitting on the edge of my recliner! The man’s acting chops, as demonstrated in his impressive portfolio spanning from comedy to drama, are nothing short of mesmerizing.
According to our exclusive sources, the TV adaptation of “The Rainmaker” on USA Network has cast Wade Briggs as a series regular character.
The series, sharing its name with a novel by John Grisham, was acquired by a cable network in June. Actor Briggs will join the cast alongside previously announced members Milo Callaghan, John Slattery, Madison Iseman, Lana Parrilla, P.J. Byrne, Robyn Cara, and Dan Fogler.
Straight out of law school, our protagonist Rudy Baylor (Callaghan) finds himself in a high-stakes battle against courtroom titan Leo Drummond (Slattery), as well as his former law school partner (Iseman). As Rudy teams up with his boss and her messy assistant paralegal, they begin to untangle two intertwined conspiracies surrounding the suspicious death of their client’s son.
Briggs is set to portray Brad Noonan, who holds a significant position as an influential lawyer at the Tinley Britt Law Firm and serves as the right-hand man to the firm’s top executive, Leo Drummond.
More recently, Briggs has appeared on television in shows such as “Foundation” on Apple TV+, “His Dark Materials” on HBO, and the PBS/Masterpiece series “Moonflower Murders.” He is recognized for his contributions to comedic programs like “Please Like Me” and “Still Star Crossed.
He is repped by Insight Management & Production.
The “Rainmaker” series originates from Lionsgate Television and Blumhouse Television. Michael Seitzman takes on both writing and executive producing roles, while Jason Richman is also an executive producer and co-wrote the pilot episode with Seitzman. Additionally, Grisham, David Gernert, and Jason Blum are all named as executive producers for this series.
The Rainmaker” is being adapted for television for the first time, marking its second screen adaptation overall. Previously, it was turned into a movie directed by Francis Ford Coppola, with Matt Damon portraying the character Rudy. The film also featured Claire Danes, Jon Voight, Mary Kay Place, Mickey Rourke, Danny DeVito, Danny Glover, Roy Scheider, Virginia Madsen, and Teresa Wright in its cast.
