As you wish - Cary Elwes to guest star on Leverage!

Now THIS is some freaking awesome casting news!

'Leverage' nabs Cary Elwes for guest spot


cary-elwes

The Leverage team is back to its old capers and, in the first episode of season 5, Cary Elwes is on their radar.

The Princess Bride star is set to guest-star in the premiere, playing Scott Roemer, a modern-day Howard Hughes who is the owner of Global Transit Airlines. The team cons the unscrupulous Roemer into thinking he has a chance to steal Hughes’ famous Spruce Goose mega-plane, but after he seemingly takes the bait, he comes to realize all is not as it seems.

Leverage returns with 15 new episodes this summer. Season 4 of the caper drama averaged 4.8 million viewers.

Woot! I mean, c'mon, people who DOESN'T like The Princess Bride? I've loved seeing Cary pop up now and again on Psych, but to have him on Leverage kicks ass! Gosh, first I got my Houston Knights hunk Michael Pare on Leverage last season and now The Dread Pirate Roberts! :-)

Personally, I was just delighted to see my fellow countryman Cameron Daddo (Rollie from F/X - the TV series, not the movie) in the S4 season opener of Leverage ;).

You’re the second person to mention Cameron Daddo to me! I don't think I ever saw the F/X series, but I have seen him on many other things. Great actor!

LOL, I'll see if it's on Netflix! I'm sure it is, so I'll try to watch it this weekend.

I'm very excited to see both Cary Elwes and Cameron Daddo on Leverage! And I doubly thank you, Barb, for keep us informed! I'll be honest when say I don't keep up on the happenings but so enjoy these types of visits!

I had no idea about Cameron Daddo. You’re the second person to mention it to me! Don’t know how I missed that news. :-)

And you’re very welcome for the info. Always my pleasure to share with you guys!
