According to TVLine.com, stage and screen star Richard Dreyfuss is set to star in a multi-episode arc of NBC's 'Parenthood'.  Dreyfuss will appear on the final four episodes of the season as Gilliam T. Blount, 'a once-great theater producer who also happens to be an old friend of Zeek's.'  

Dreyfuss is best known for starring in a number of film, television, and theater roles since the late 1960s, including the films American Graffiti, Jaws, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, The Goodbye Girl, Stakeout, Always, What About Bob? and Mr. Holland's Opus. In April 2004, he appeared in the revival of Sly Fox on Broadway opposite Eric Stoltz, René Auberjonois, Bronson Pinchot and Elizabeth Berkley.  In early 2009, he appeared in the play Complicit, directed by Kevin Spacey at London's Old Vic theatre.

Parenthood is an NBC television series that aired in March 2010. The show revolves around the Braverman family, which has expanded to three generations, featuring patriarch Zeek Braverman and matriarch Camille Braverman, their oldest son Adam and his wife, daughter, and son, their daughter Sarah and her two kids, their second son Crosby, his ex-girlfriend Jasmine and their young son Jabbar, and finally their daughter Julia Braverman-Graham and her stay-at-home husband and young daughter.
