Season 3 cast member Kerry Washington premiered a Scandal parody spin-off, Escandalo, earlier this week on Jimmy Kimmel Live. A far from bashful Scott Foley bares all in a new ad campaign for luxury linen company Charisma. President Tony Goldwyn is going to be getting his freak on, playing a Mormon polygamist in Lifetime movie Outlaw Prophet. Spoilers he can't pardon himself.
Shonda Rimes political drama Scandal has been such a hit that there is little doubt that the series could be exported to international markets if the network desired.
And if ABC execs are wondering what a pilot might look like, actress Kerry Washington and late night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel have one already put together for them.
Shortly into what started out as a seemingly legit conversation about how the overdubbing works in episode broadcasts abroad, Jimmy suggested they watch what he insisted was a very popular Spanish version of the show aired south of the border (via NY Daily Mail):
"Like we were all sitting around on set one day and we realized the South African premiere was happening. Because we were all at work. We were like, 'Oh, let's live tweet with our South African audience...It's very cool."
President Tony Goldwyn should have no problem transitions to the Mormon FLDS polygamist cult leader Warren Jeffs in Lifetime's new movie Outlaw Prophet.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the movie is going to focus on Jeffs' rise and ultimate fall:
"From Sony Pictures Television, Outlaw centers on the true story of Jeffs, the leader of a Fundamentalist Mormon polygamist sect who spent more than a year on the FBI's 10 Most Wanted List.
"He eluded authorities and was ultimately caught by a Nevada Highway Patrol trooper."
Not to be out down co-star also has a side project.
The actor has been doing a little semi-nude modeling for luxury linen line Charisma's new ad campaign.
The 41-year-old said of his topless towel advertisement via Twitter, that he did't always disrobe on camera, but he would for the right people:
"Although it may seem so, I don't always work without a shirt. But for my new @Charisma campaign... I sacrificed!"
Scandal airs Thursday nights on ABC.
