John Corbett joins Katey Sagal in Erin Brockovich-inspired ABC pilot Rebel

Deadline

The Northern Exposure and Sex and the City alum will co-star with Sagal on the ABC drama pilot inspired by activist Brockovich's life in the present day. He'll play Grady Bello, "a charming jack of all trades who never grew out of his dirty-sexy bad boy looks; even has the vintage mustang to prove it," per Deadline. "Grady shares one adopted teenage daughter, Ziggie, with his wife of almost 10 years, Rebel (Sagal) Although he’s her third husband, Grady has been with her the longest of any man. He thinks of himself as a good guy. Other people, for the most part, think of him as a pathological liar. But Rebel loves him — and he makes the most of that."
