Jun 11, 2021
Washington [US], June 11 : Fans of 'This Is Us' star Milo Ventimiglia will soon see him reuniting with 'Gilmore Girls' creator Amy Sherman-Palladino on the hit Amazon series 'The Marvelous Mrs Maisel' starring Emmy award-winning actor Rachel Brosnahan.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Milo will be having a guest role in the hit Amazon series' fourth season, which is currently in production. Other details about the project are still under wraps.
Milo will join several other stars like Alex Borstein, Liza Weil, Brian Tarantina and Emily Bergl, who have appeared on the Emmy-winning show.
Milo's guest appearance will mark as the second 'This Is Us' cast appearance on 'The Marvelous Mrs Maisel' after Sterling K. Brown played a key role in the show's third season, scoring an Emmy nomination for best-supporting actor in a comedy series.
Sherman-Palladino told The Hollywood Reporter in August 2020 that season four of The 'Marvelous Mrs Maisel' would pick up shortly after the end of season three, where rising stand-up comic Midge Maisel (Rachel Brosnahan) suffered a professional setback when a pop singer's manager (Brown) dropped her as the opening act on his tour.
"I mean, what's the fun of totally destroying someone's soul and heart and not getting to see the aftermath? That's what comedy's made of, soul-crushing defeat," Sherman-Palladino said at that time.
The Emmy-winning show has been written and directed by Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino. It stars Brosnahan, Shalhoub, Borstein, Luke Kirby, Jane Lynch, Emmy nominee Hinkle, Michael Zegen, Kevin Pollak and Caroline Aaron.
Moreover, the series is a winner of 16 Emmy Awards including Outstanding Comedy Series, three Golden Globes including Best TV Series-- Comedy, five Critics' Choice Awards including Best Comedy Series, two PGA Awards, a WGA Award, and a Peabody Award.
It revolves around the story of Miriam Maisel (Rachel Brosnahan) who has everything she has ever wanted- the perfect husband, two kids and an elegant apartment on New York's Upper West Side. Her seemingly idyllic life takes a surprising turn when she discovers a hidden talent she did not previously know she had- 'stand-up comedy'.
