Peacock‘s latest Craig Robinson-led comedy series, Killing It, has announced the main cast for the series. The cast includes Claudia O’doherty (Love, Trainwreck), Rell Battle (Black-ish, The Good Doctor), Scott Macarthur (The Mick and Righteous Gemstones), Stephanie Nogueras (The Good Fight, Switched at Birth), Wyatt Walter (Sons of Thunder), and Jet Miller (Bethany, Young Dylan).
The project reunites Craig Robinson with Brooklyn Nine-Nine co-creator Dan Goor and executive producer Luke Del Tredici. Robinson recurs on NBC’s Brooklyn Nine-Nine as Jake’s friend and nemesis, Doug Judy (aka the Pontiac Bandit).
Killing It, the 30 minute 10 episode series, is a comedy about class, capitalism and one man’s quest to achieve the American dream. And also about hunting really big snakes.
Robinson (The Office, Brooklyn Nine-Nine) will play Craig, a man who will do anything to make his American Dream come true, even compete in a state-sponsored python hunt. O’doherty will play Jillian, a down-on-her luck Uber driver who introduces Craig to the bizarre world of snake hunting. Battle will play Isaiah, Craig’s younger brother, whose version of the American Dream is a lot less legal than Craig’s. Macarthur will play Brock, a rival snake hunter and aspiring social media star. Nogueras will play Camille, Craig’s ex-wife with whom he uneasily co-parents their pre-teen daughter, Vanessa. Walter will play Corby, Brock’s teenage son and reluctant cameraman. Miller will play Vanessa, Craig’s daughter who idolizes her father, but wants nothing to do with hunting snakes. Mo Marable (Woke, Brockmire) is set to direct the first three episodes. Production has begun in New Orleans, LA.
Robinson executive produces the series alongside Marable and Mark Schulman. Dan Goor and Luke Del Tredici serve as Co-Showrunners, Writers and Executive Producers. Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group produces.
