David Tennant To Star in NBC Drama

Tags: David Tennant, Doctor Who

Doctor Who star David Tennant will star in NBC's new hour-long pilot, Rex Is Not Your Lawyer. According to The Hollywood Reporter, "Rex centers on Rex Alexander (Tennant), a top Chicago litigator who begins suffering panic attacks and takes up coaching clients to represent themselves in court."

Can't wait to hear Tennant's Midwest accent. And let's hope NBC treats this show a little better than they did Damian Lewis' Life.
