Facing Kate adds Trucco and Williams to cast

Sarah Shahi’s new pilot Facing Kate has just added Michael Trucco (One Tree Hill and Battlestar Galactica) and Virginia Williams (Monarch Grove and How I Met Your Mother) to the fold. Trucco will play lead character Kate’s ex-husband. Williams will play Kat’es young and controlling step mother.

Facing Kate stars Sarah Shahi - probably best known as Carmen in The L Word - as the eponymous Kate, a woman who quits her job as a lawyer to take on the job of mediator at her dads law firm when he passes away. Sounds like step mom tries to cause her some problems, so she calls in her ex to help. The show is being produced by USA Network.
