After a stellar premiere episode that welcomed over 27 million viewers to the Ashton Kutcher era of 'Two and a Half Men', CBS has tapped another star to beef up the ratings: Joe Manganiello.
Manganiello currently stars as Alcide on HBO's 'True Blood' and is getting into the feature game with Lionsgate's What to Expect When You're Not Expecting and Magic Mike.
The rising star is expected to make an appearance on October 24th episode of the hit comedy. He will be playing the hunky boyfriend of Bridget, the ex-wife of Ashton Kutcher's character. Judy Greer will be playing Bridget, she makes her first appearance tomorrow.
The stint of Manganiello's work on the show has yet to be confirmed, but I highly expect his story arc to only cover one to two episodes.
About Stephen Davis
I owe this hobby/career to the one and only Stephanie Peterman who, while interning at Fox, told me that I had too many opinions and irrelevant information to keep it all bottled up inside. I survived my first rated R film, Alive, at the ripe age of 8, it took me months to grasp the fact that Julia Roberts actually died at the end of Steel Magnolias, and I might be the only person alive who actually enjoyed Sorority Row…for its comedic value of course. While my friends can drink you under the table, I can outwatch you when it comes iconic, yet horrid 80s films like Adventures in Babysitting and Troop Beverly Hills. I have no shame when it comes to what I like, and if you have a problem with that, then we’ll settle it on the racquetball court. I see too many movies to actually win any film trivia contest, so don’t waste your first pick on me. My friends rent movies from my bookcase shelves, and one day I do plan to start charging. I long to live in LA, where my movie obsession will actually help me fit in, but for now I am content with my home in Austin. I prefer indies to blockbusters, Longhorns to Sooners and Halloween to Friday the 13th. I miss the classics, as well as John Ritter, and I hope to one day sit down and interview the amazing Kate Winslet.
