Diedrich Bader, Suzanne Cryer, Cedric Yarbrough, and Sara Amini have joined the cast of 'Straight Man' opposite Bob Odenkirk.

While Better Call Saul might be over, series star Bob Odenkirk has another project at AMC in the works. The new dramedy series Straight Man, which was ordered to series back in April of this year, has announced four new cast members joining the series alongside Odenkirk.

Cryer will play Gracie DuBois, a poetry professor at Railton, who cares much more for the poetry side of that title than the professor part despite her having a real knack for teaching. As someone whose love of language makes her feel both connected to the world and also proud of herself and her abilities, she can feel threatened when others don’t see the value of her poetry, which constantly finds herself at odds with Hank.

Straight Man is based on the 1997 novel of the same name written by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Richard Russo. The story follows William Henry Devereaux Jr., the unlikely interim chairman of the English department of the extremely underfunded Railton College found in the rust belt of Pennsylvania. The series will air on both AMC and AMC+. The series is being produced by AMC alongside partners Sony Pictures’ Television TriStar TV and Gran Via.
