A few weeks ago, Kyle Chandler joined an as-yet-unnamed Netflix series from the creators of Damages about a family of adult siblings, playing the married, responsible middle brother. Now Freaks And Geeks’ Linda Cardellini will follow her recent dramatic stint on Mad Men by signing on as “Meg, the youngest of four siblings, a skilled attorney who’s warm, caring, and fun.” Ben Mendolsohn will play the black sheep brother who returns to stir up drama with his siblings, but landing an Emmy winner (Chandler) and another nominee (Cardellini) is a good start to rounding out the cast. Also, it allows us to imagine the kind of speech Coach Taylor would’ve given Lindsay Weir if she was his daughter, then giggle.
