While
My Own Worst Enemy main man Christian Slater is himself a bankable actor, NBC beefs up its new series by adding multiple Emmy winner Alfre Woodard in the cast of this highly anticipated psychological drama. By doing so, it is said that it adds prestige and credibility to the show.
Scheduled to air at 10pm Mondays,
My Own Worst Enemy had set up pretty high expectations for itself, as a novel concept for a television show. Slater plays the role of a Henry Spivey, a man who suffers from a chronic and potentially dangerous case of dual personality: he is at once a regular suburban husband and a secret agent. The two men live vastly different lives and are never aware of each other causing complications when they become bitter enemies.
Woodard, for her part, will play the supervisor of Slater’s spy personality. She will be crucial as she will also have contact with the other side of Slater’s personality. Woodard has won a grand total of four Emmy Awards, most recently for a guest spot on
The Practice. She also guest-starred on
Desperate Housewives for one whole season as Betty Applewhite, which also earned her an Emmy nomination.
The other cast members for
My Own Worst Enemy include Mike O'Malley, Saffron Burrows and Yara Martinez.
