James Woods Gets a New Ex on 'Shark,' Claims Getting Propositioned by Nicole Brown Simpson on National Television
James Woods may be in for some scintillating company on CBS' returning series
Shark. His character, Sebastian Stark, will be reunited with his ex-wife, to be played by Irish born actress, Orla Brady.
The role of Stark's former spouse was originally played by American actress, Lindsay Frost.
The 46-year old Brady will take over the part initially essayed by Frost in last season's pilot episode. She will appear in a multi-episode arc in this current second season, which began September 23.
Prior to her stint on
Shark, Brady has also taken turns in other series like
Family Law and
Nip/Tuck.
In other news and still speaking of Woods, the 60-year old veteran actor recently came out with a bizarre revelation during his guest appearance on
The Late Show with Craig Ferguson. According to Woods, the late Nicole Brown Simpson had once fancied him to the point of wanting to cheat on her husband, O.J. with the actor.
Woods narrated on the show that O.J. Simpson had invited him to dinner years before Nicole Brown's brutally horrific murder. At the Palm Springs restaurant they went to, Woods claimed that O.J. had struck up a conversation with Nicole's sister, Denise, at which point Nicole allegedly turned her attention to Woods.
"(She was) this curvy, gorgeous blonde . . . and she starts talking to me, and everything is about how she is really not happy with her marriage,” the Shark actor confided on national television. “I'm going through a divorce at the time, and I'm taking the bait. I guess I'm kind of being set up."
"It was very odd. About four days later, I get at my house a letter from her, 'Dear Jimmy,' with a little heart where the 'I' is, [saying] 'O.J. is out of town, maybe you would like to get together.' [I thought], this can't be possible," Woods added.
