FX has rounded out the cast for the upcoming series inspired by the lives of Bob Fosse and Gwen Verdon.

The series, now officially titled FOSSE/VERDON, stars the previously announced Sam Rockwell (as Fosse) and Michelle Williams (as Verdon), with Norbert Leo Butz (Paddy Chayefsky) and Margaret Qualley (Ann Reinking) joining the eight-episode limited series as series regulars. (It’s based on the biography written by Sam Wasson.)

FOSSE/VERDON has also expanded its recurring cast by adding: Aya Cash (Joan Simon), Nate Corddry (Neil Simon), Susan Misner (Joan McCracken), Bianca Marroquin (Chita Rivera), Kelli Barrett (Liza Minnelli), Evan Handler (Hal Prince), Rick Holmes (Fred Weaver), and Paul Reiser (Cy Feuer). Ethan Slater (Joel Grey), Byron Jennings (George Abbott), and Laura Osnes (Shirley MacLaine) have also been cast.

Per FX, FOSSE/VERDON “tells the story of the singular romantic and creative partnership between Bob Fosse and Gwen Verdon. He was a visionary filmmaker and one of theater’s most influential choreographers and directors. She was the greatest Broadway dancer of all time. Together they changed the face of American entertainment – at a perilous cost. Featuring Fosse’s choreography, the series explores the hidden corners of show business, the price of pursuing greatness, and the suffering inflicted in the name of art.”
