William H. Macy is set to star in the TNT series Family Man.
This is the third TNT project Macy has been involved with, having already co-written (with writing partner Steven Schachter) the Emmy-winning Door to Door and The Wool Cap.
Family Man, which Macy also wrote with Schachter, focuses on the life of a man who gives to charity but also steals from major corporations. According to Variety, the series is told in "flash forward" fashion in which we see Macy imprisoned in the future. Sounds like kind of a modern take on the Robin Hood story to me.
There's no word yet on when the series will air.

Wow, Macy as a modern day Robin Hood?! Interesting. I've loved all William H. Macy's TNT shows (Wool Cap, Door to Door) so I'm sure I'll enjoy 'Family Man'. Great stories! Glad to see him back on TV. Hope he does a play once in a blue moon.
