How Reggie Dinkins Landed 'Extraordinary' Guest Stars
The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins, from Tina Fey, is a new NBC sitcom starring Tracy Morgan, Daniel Radcliffe, Erika Alexander and Bobby Moynihan. Morgan plays disgraced former NFL star Reggie Dinkins, who recruits defamed film director Arthur Tobin (Radcliffe) to make a movie that will reclaim his public image.
Watch the first two episodes on Monday, February 23 at 8/7c on NBC and the next day on Peacock. Season 1 includes guest turns from Megan Thee Stallion, Anna Camp, Craig Robinson, Soledad O'Brien and Heidi Gardner. Producer Sam Means said, "We got incredibly lucky with this guest cast.
It’s really extraordinary," and Robert Carlock added, "These are the kinds of yeses that you get in Season 2." Robinson will play Reggie’s former NFL rival, with Gardner cast as Robinson’s wife, a former rival of Monica, Reggie’s ex-wife and manager. Means described the creative process as beginning with Morgan and quickly identifying Radcliffe for the director role, building an odd-couple dynamic from there.
