LENNIE MOVES FROM 'JERICHO' TO AMC: Actor cast in new mini-series 'The Prisoner.'
*Lennie James, last seen as Robert Hawkins on CBS' popular-but-cancelled drama "Jericho," has signed on to AMC's remake of the classic 1960s show "The Prisoner."
The actor will play Number 147, a resident of the mysterious Village where a former secret agent, now known as Number 6 (Jim Caviezel), finds himself imprisoned.
Ian McKellen has already been cast as Number 2, the apparent head of the Village and Number 6's primary antagonist, reports Zap2it.com. Other actors playing Village members include Ruth Wilson, Hayley Atwell and Jamie Campbell-Bower.
AMC is producing "The Prisoner" with British broadcaster ITV and Granada International, with Bill Gallagher attached to write. The six-hour miniseries is scheduled to air sometime next year.
