Billy Zane Joins MacGruber And Will Play An Evil Villain

Billy Zane, known for his supporting roles on Titanic and Dead Calm, is joining the cast of MacGruber, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

NBC Peacock's new eight-episode TV series is a spin-off of the original Saturday Night Live sketch that was a satirical take on the ostentatious action series MacGyver. Playing with action-adventure tropes, the TV show will still follow the adventures of main character MacGruber, reprised by Will Forte, and will take place after his release from a 10-year prison stint. MacGruber's mission is to eliminate the villainous Brigadier Commander Enos Queeth, who will be played by Zane.

Previously announced cast members include Kirsten Wiig and Ryan Phillippe, who will play Vicki St. Elmo and Dixon Piper respectively. Laurence Fishburne, Joseph Lee Anderson, and Timothy V. Murphy will also be part of the TV series.
