\tLeanne Morgan\u2019s upcoming Netflix multi-cam comedy series has added five new series regulars, Variety has learned. <\/p>\n
\tRyan Stiles (\u201cWhose Line Is It Anyway?,\u201d \u201cThe Drew Carey Show\u201d), Blake Clark (\u201cToy Story 4,\u201d \u201cUnited States of Al\u201d), Graham Rogers (\u201cRay Donovan,\u201d \u201cThe Kominsky Method\u201d), Hannah Pilkes (\u201cWould I Lie To You,\u201d \u201cMolli And Max In The Future\u201d), and Celia Weston (\u201cIn The Bedroom,\u201d \u201cDead Man Walking\u201d) have all joined the series alongside Morgan and previously announced cast member Kristen Johnston.<\/p>\n
\tThe series, now titled \u201cLeanne,\u201d was picked up to series at Netflix in April. Morgan co-created the series with Chuck Lorre and Susan McMartin. It is slated to debut in 2025. \t<\/p>\n
\tThe official logline states, \u201cLeanne\u2019s life takes an unexpected turn when her husband of 33 years leaves her for another woman. Starting over when you\u2019re a grandmother and in menopause isn\u2019t exactly what she had in mind, but with the help of her family she will navigate this new chapter with grace, dignity and jello salad.\u201d <\/p>\n
\t\t\t \t\t\tPopular on Variety\t\t \t \t\t \t \tRogers will play Tyler, Leanne\u2019s son, described as \u201cher pride and joy. A new dad who\u2019s cowed by his dominating wife, Tyler has the pressures that come with starting your own family while at the same time trying to navigate how to walk through the unexpected demise of his parents\u2019 marriage.\u201d<\/p>\n
\tPilkes will play Josie, Leanne\u2019s daughter, said to be \u201cthe complete opposite of Tyler. A partier, a rule breaker, a seeker of fun. In and out of jobs, in and out of relationships, Josie has always known her brother is the golden child, so she accepted her role as the rebel early on and never disappoints in fulfilling it.\u201d<\/p>\n
\tStiles will play Bill, Leanne\u2019s ex-husband. \u201cMarried to Leanne for 33 years, Bill built his RV business to provide a good life for his family. A devoted husband, father, grandfather and son-in-law, Bill always put family first\u2026 until now. Having just blown up his life by leaving Leanne for another woman, Bill, for the first time, has no idea what he\u2019s doing.\u201d<\/p>\n
\tWeston is set as Mama Margaret, Leanne and Carol\u2019s (Johnston) mother and the matriarch of the family. \u201cA faithful member of the church and community, Mama always has a kind word and a glass-half-full attitude. She\u2019s fully prepared for death but will probably outlive them all.\u201d \t<\/p>\n
\tClark plays Daddy John, Leanne and Carol\u2019s father. \u201cA bit old school when it comes to the roles of men and women. Strong, outspoken and would do anything for his family.\u201d<\/p>\n
\tMorgan, McMartin, and Lorre all serve as executive producers on the project, as does Judi Marmel and Nick Bakay. Chuck Lorre Productions produces in association with Warner Bros. Television, where Lorre is under an overall deal.<\/p>\n
