TV NEWS: DON CHEADLE TAKES ON COMEDIC ROLE IN ‘HOUSE OF LIES’ / MOS DEF PLAYS BROTHER SAM IN NEW SEASON OF ‘DEXTER’

Hotel Rwanda‘s Don Cheadle is taking his movie acting skills over to another side of entertainment – television. The Emmy-nominated actor is starring in a new comedy television series, House of Lies, where he plays Marty Kaan, “a highly successful, cutthroat consultant who is never above using any means (or anyone) necessary to get his clients the information they want”:

While you sleep, while you work, while you play, we keep America running like clockwork. With the secret handshake, the wizards of Oz, the hand up your skirt when no one’s looking, we keep big business in business by telling them what they need, when they need it. Truth? We’re just stealing their watch to tell them the time. And they’re paying us millions for the favor.

House of Lies is based off the Martin Kihn novel, House of Lies: How Management Consultants Steal Your Watch and Then Tell You the Time. The television series premieres on January 8, 2012 at 10pm EST on Showtime. Peep the promo trailer above.

Speaking of Showtime, rapper Mos Def is also putting his acting skills to use as he guest stars in Season 6 of the cable network’s show, Dexter. He plays a character named Brother Sam and so far his character has been killed off! Halleluyer! Lol Check him out at the 0:32 mark in the video below.

    “has been killed off” or hasn’t been killed off (just askin) in regards to Mos Defs character on Dexter

    “Hasnt” Guess they were a bit too happy in writing that statement lol. I Watch Dexter! Awesome show. I dont see his character being killed off until the end of season though. I’d be shocked if they killed him off before then.
