In addition to Falco, the series will also star Michael Chernus, Adelaide Clemens, David Fierro, Russell G. Jones, Olivia Lucy Phillip, and Joseph Lyle Taylor. Paul Attanasio, the creator of the current CBS series “Bull,” is the writer and executive producer on “Tommy.” Darryl Frank and Justin Falvey of Amblin Television will also executive produce. Kate Dennis directed and executive produced the pilot. CBS Television Studios will produce.
Sources say that CBS was very high on getting Falco on the network, making this project a priority for them once Falco signed on to star.
