Belushi, English, Levinson Slipped a Mickey

While TV series packages are getting harder to come by these days, ICM has a pretty good one to show studios and networks.

James Belushi has agreed to team with Diane English and Barry Levinson for an hourlong TV drama that will cast him as a defense attorney character modeled after the famed lawyer and TV commentator Mickey Sherman.

Belushi is coming off a long run in the ABC sitcom “According to Jim.“

Sherman wrote the memoir “How Can You Defend Those People?,” and the idea is for Belushi to play a likable prosecutor who defends the guilty and innocent with equal vigor.

English, the “Murphy Brown” vet returns to TV after writing and directed the Warner Bros. remake “The Women.” As for Levinson, Showtime this week premiered his docu “PoliWood,” about the convergence of celebs on the Democratic and Republican national conventions and its impact on the presidential campaign of 2008. Levinson, who featured Sherman in a cameo of his film “Man of the Year,” just directed for HBO the Jack Kevorkian pic “You Don’t Know Jack,” which stars Al Pacino as the controversial death dealer.

Belushi is repped by ICM and Brillstein Entertainment Partners.

Jim Belushi in an hour long drama ? Then there is hope that I could be cast as a scientist in a movie,....wait a minute, I was, in "The Patriot", which had the misfortune of being released at the same time as Gibson's movie. I won the UFC demographic audience with that one though,...
