NBC‘s new multi-cam comedy “Newlyweds” has cast three new series regulars, Variety has learned.
Emma Meisel, Ignacio Diaz-Silverio and Bill O’Neill have all joined the series opposite leads Téa Leoni and Tim Daly. As previously reported, series executive producer Jamie Lee Curtis will also appear in a recurring guest star role.
The logline for the show describes it as “a later-in-life love story about a free-spirited woman (Leoni) and a buttoned-up professor (Daly) who marry impetuously after a whirlwind courtship.”
Meisel and Diaz-Silverio will play Poppy and Lolo, respectively. Both are Jeanie’s (Leoni), with Lolo being adopted. O’Neill will play Arvid, who is James’ (Daly) assistant in the philosophy department at the University of Oslo.
Meisel previously appeared in the Disney+ series “Doogie Kamealoha, M.D.” She is also known for her role in Destry Allyn Spielberg’s debut film, “Please Don’t Feed the Children” and appeared in multiple episodes of “American Horror Story” Season 9.
