Variety reports that Jason Alexander, best known his iconic character George Costanza on "Seinfeld," has joined FOX pilot "Richard Lovely."
The project follows the title character, who is the disgruntled author of the best-selling children's book series, "Mr. Mouse." Richard doesn't hate children, but rather just everything about them.
After a publicity fiasco involving an unexpectedly savvy 9-year-old kid, Mr. Mouse appears in Richard's real life as he is forced into an unlikely father/son relationship that will change his life forever.
Alexander will voice Mr. Mouse, who will be an animated character. Already announced cast members include Thomas Lennon, who will play the titular author, Wendie Malick, Nicole Sun, Asif Ali, Nicole Richie, Mason Shneiderman, Kai Cech, and Thom Nemer.
Billy Finnegan will write and executive produce the series and Alex Hardcastle will serve executive producer in addition to directing the pilot. 20th Century Fox Television will produce.
