As sad as it is to see a good show end, there's a great relief that most of the stars of Strike Back will have opportunities to be seen in other shows.
Both Philip and Sully will be starring in their own shows on network television.
Philip's new project is called "The Player." It was just announced that the show has been picked up by NBC. It stars Philip and Westley Snipes, with Charity Wakefield and Damon Gupton. More information about the show from
Deadline Hollywood:
Thriller The Player, starring Philip Winchester and Wesley
Snipes, was an early standout at NBC. The project, from John Rogers and
Davis Entertainment, was among the three drama pilots allowed to begin
staffing last week...
From the executive producers of The Blacklist and starring Wesley Snipes and Philip Winchester (Strike Back, Fringe)
comes an action-packed Las Vegas thriller about a former military
operative turned security expert who is drawn into a high-stakes game
where an organization of wealthy individuals gamble on his ability to
stop some of the biggest crimes imaginable from playing out. Can he take
them down from the inside and get revenge for the death of his wife, or
is it true what they say: The house always wins.
John Davis, John Fox and director Bharat Nalluri also executive produce. The Player is produced by Sony Pictures Television Davis Entertainment and Kung Fu Monkey.
We might still see some Stonebridge action in this new thriller.
Are you excited? We are!
We will do our best now to keep fans in the know about this new project.
Looking for Sully's new show, Blindspot, also on NBC, we found this picture from
Zap2it:
They may not be on the same show, but at least they will be on the same network!
