Jeffrey Wright Joins 'Boardwalk Empire,' RZA Gets 'Gang Related' & Scoot McNairy Is Ready To 'Halt & Catch Fire'

Exciting news for "Boardwalk Empire" fans – Jeffrey Wright will join the show for its fourth season next year as a series regular. He'll be playing "Valentin Narcisse, Doctor of Divinity, philanthropist, student of culture and the man who runs Harlem." So he's a character with a pretty impressive CV, and its some nice casting for a show that continues to cast respected character actors. Wright recently finished work on "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" where he played the notable character from the books of Beetee. After making his directorial debut last year with the Eli Roth-produced "The Man With the Iron Fists," it looks like Wu-Tang Clan's RZA is ready to do some work on the small screen. His most notable television gig to date was a recurring role on "Californication," but he'll now join Ramon Rodriguez, Jay Hernandez and Sung Kang in Fox's drama pilot, "Gang Related." RZA will play the best friend and parent of Rodrguez's lead undercover policeman....
