IFC’s upcoming six-part miniseries spoof The Spoils Before Dying just rounded out its cast. The network announced today that in addition to Michael Kenneth Williams and Will Ferrell, the jazz murder mystery series will include an impressive cast made up of both returning cast members from The Spoils of Babylon and some new faces. Here’s the full list:
Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph, Haley Joel Osment, Michael Sheen, Kate McKinnon, Val Kilmer, Tim Meadows, Steve Tom, Chris Parnell, Emily Ratajkowski, Andy Daly, Chris Mulkey, Chin Han, Marc Evan Jackson, Jack Kilmer, Patty Guggenheim, Bérénice Marlohe
The series is set in the Los Angeles jazz scene in 1962, and Williams stars as a man named Rock, who becomes the prime suspect in the double murder of “singer and his occasional lover†Fresno Foxglove (played by Rudolph) and another man. Wiig will play Delores O’Dell, Rock’s “one-time big band singer†who reunites with him when he flees to Mexico, while Osment will play Alistar St. Barnaby, Rock’s “hard charging manager†who pressures him to record a mainstream jazz album. The Spoils Before Dying premieres on IFC sometime this summer. Check out a teaser below:
