Beau Bridges Headed Back to TV
Beau Bridges is set to co-star opposite Dermot Mulroney on NBC’s “Rockford Files” reboot. “Rockford,” written and executive produced by “House” creator David Shore and executive produced by Steve Carell, stars Mulroney as roguish private detective Jim Rockford. Bridges will play his father and closest friend, Rocky, a truck driver for thirty years who always helps his son in a tough situation, though he tends to offer a commentary that Jim doesn’t always appreciate. Noah Beery, Jr. played the role on the original series.
