David Tennant news update: 'Rex' canned, 'Glorious 39' headed to the US + more

NBC did not pickup Rex is Not Your Lawyer for its upcoming fall season, so it's been scrapped.

In other news, David Tennant has been cast in Decoy Bride alongside Alice Eve and Kelly MacDonald. The project was announced at the Cannes Film Festival last Friday and is set to start shooting for 5 weeks this June. It will shoot on the Isle of Man and in Scotland.

The Decoy Bride tells the story of a superstar actress, Lara (Eve), who just wants to marry her cute British boyfriend James (Tennant), and believes the sleepy Scottish Island of Hegg is the one place the world’s press won’t find them. But when an ingenious paparazzo tracks them down, the diva must find a decoy bride and thinks local girl Katie (MacDonald) will be an ideal replacement. But when Katie meets James, sparks fly.

Glorious 39 which was released in the UK last year, is now headed to the US. No word yet on when it will be released. Thanks so much to mcfangirl for this information.
