Here is your first look at Blair Underwood in the upcoming television series, Ironside. As we reported earlier this week, Underwood will revive the character that was originated by Raymond Burr from 1967-75.
According to NBC, the series will explore the gritty world of the NYPD, where no one’s tougher than Detective Robert Ironside. He’s a fearless cop who won’t stop until the guilty are brought to justice. He and his trusted, handpicked team of specialists will do whatever it takes to solve New York’s most difficult and notorious crimes – even if it means breaking the rules.
Tough, sexy and acerbic, Ironside’s never been afraid to call it like he sees it. As a detective, his instincts are second to none, and those around him have to stay on their toes if they want to keep up… because when his spine was shattered by a bullet two years ago, Ironside swore he’d never let a damn wheelchair slow him down.
The ensemble cast includes Spencer Grammer, Brent Sexton, Pablo Schreiber, Neal Bledsoe, and Kenneth Choi.
Ironside will air Wednesdays at 10pm this fall.
