Shameless vet Noel Fisher is headed back to the Windy City.
The actor will co-star in the CBS drama pilot Red Line as a Chicago cop who shot an African-American doctor in a convenience store, our sister site Deadline reports.
The potential series will follow three different families that have a connection to the case as the story is told from each of their perspectives.
In other pilot casting news, per Deadline:
* Angela Kinsey (The Office) will star opposite Kat Dennings in an untitled ABC comedy about two guest-services associates at a high-end resort and the co-workers and patrons they’re stuck with. Kinsey will play one of the hotel’s employees, who has the worst luck.
* Cedric the Entertainer (The Soul Man) has come aboard the CBS comedy Welcome to the Neighborhood playing neighbor to a nice Midwestern family in a tough area of L.A.
