XXL reports that Com Sense has been cast in the AMC network’s forthcoming drama series Hell on Wheels, a show that will center on the building of the Transcontinental Railroad. Common is set to play the role of Elam, a half black, half white, freed slave hoping to find work. According to deadline.com, he is the first person to be cast in the Western.
“Common brings a layered intensity to a very complex role,” said Joel Stillerman, the network’s VP of programming. “This part required someone who can transcend the stereotypes of the period and bring the character to life in a truly unique way, and he brings that.”
Sounds interesting..
