You'll recall that in the final episode of Larry Sanders , Shandling's self-obsessed and insecure talk show host character chased Beatty down in a parking lot to beg him to be on the last show, only to have the Bulworth star drive away. Filming on Town and Country begins later this month. The character actor, a veteran of such films as The Usual Suspects , Smoke , and Waiting to Exhale , will play the estranged son of Yaphet Kotto's imposing Baltimore Police Lt. Giardello. Esposito is no stranger to police dramas, having done two guest stints on NYPD Blue , as well as episodes of Nash Bridges and New York Undercover . Variety says Aaron's little girl has signed on to star in a low-budget pic about two young gay men who meet in a New York subway station and search for privacy.
Spelling plays the best friend of one of the guys.
