Dane Cook, tand-up comic-turned-feature actor, has been tapped to star in NBC’s comedy pilot Next Caller Please, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
The single-camera series revolves around Cam Doherty, a brash alpha male DJ and his feminist co-host set in the office of a satellite radio station.
Cook will play Cam, the disheveled, unshaven, hung-over and purposely detached magnetic grouch who doesn’t like that his co-host is a woman.
