Michael J. Fox May Join FX’s Rescue Me

Casting for Rescue Me’s upcoming fifth season may include Michael J. Fox. The deal for Michael J. Fox to join the cast of Rescue Me for a multi-episode arc. He’ll play a love interest for Denis Leary’s on-screen ex, Janet (Andrea Roth). An FX spokesperson confirms that Fox is circling the role, but insists “no deal is done yet.”

This marks Michael J. Fox’s first major TV gig since a 2006 guest stint on Boston Legal, where he played a CEO battling stage-four lung cancer.

Leary and Fox are longtime friends, so I’m going to assume negotiations will proceed without any problems.
