Tony Danza & Bex Taylor-Klaus To Star Opposite Adam Saunders In His Indie Comedy ‘Re-Election’
deadline.comEXCLUSIVE: Tony Danza (The Good Cop) and Bex Taylor-Klaus (Deputy) have signed on to star alongside Adam Saunders in the indie comedy Re-Election, going into production in May, which Saunders will direct from his own Austin Film Festival semi-finalist script.
