Tim Minear - ’The Inside’ Tv Show - Peter Facinelli On the Outs at Fox’s ’Inside’

By Nellie Andreeva

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Peter Facinelli has exited Fox’s upcoming drama series "The Inside," which revolves around a young undercover agent played by Rachel Nichols.

The series has been going through a makeover following the September departure of creators Todd and Glenn Kessler. Tim Minear was hired to write a new pilot script while keeping the premise.

Nichols and Facinelli, who played her boss, were the only actors from the original pilot to stay on. But after reading the new pilot script, which features a significantly changed story line, Facinelli asked to be released from the project, sources said. Recasting of the role is under way. Facinelli previously starred in Fox’s short-lived "Fastlane."

  • Don’t you wish they (Tim & Jane) would hire a former almunist from the Buffyverse or even Wonderfalls or Tru Calling to replace Peter? I think Shawn Reaves from Tru would be perfect -He looks a lot younger than he is! I don’t know enough of the plot of the story to know if the character would have to look young and try and blend in like Rachel’s character. If not, try Tyron from Wonderfalls or Sean from Firefly or even Alexis from Buffy/Angel. This show sounds interesting but a lot will hinge on the recasting of the main male lead.
