Former Neighbours actor Ben Lawson has landed one of the two lead roles in a US pilot, Wild Card.
Lawson, who appeared in ABC’s The Deep End, plays Will Garrett, a successful Wall Street attorney who could be living the American Dream but instead feels trapped in life. One night in Sin City, his life changes forever.‬
The USA Network show is described as a witty drama about people behaving badly in Las Vegas and the lawyers who solve their problems.
If this one comes off it would be yet another Aussie in a lead role in a US series.
Lawson is brother to Josh Lawson, who had a lead in the short-lived US series Romantically Challenged.

In case the question about Neighbours hasn’t been answered: Ben Lawson played Frazer Yeats (whose real name was George Brown) for two years, from 2006 to 2008. The character was quite popular with fans!
What character did he play on neighbours and how long for?
Good luck to Ben. He’s a great actor.
Ah Josh Lawson! I thought he looked familiar! Romantically Challenged’s first two eps were great… that is all…
