Donal Logue Gets Hackett Pilot On Fox

Donal Logue, who recently starred in ABC’s short-lived comedy The Knights of Prosperity, will play a bad-boy literary luminary in Fox’s comedy pilot Hackett. Rachel Boston and Morgan Murphy also are cast in the single-camera project, which will be directed by Barry Sonnenfeld. Logue’s character escapes a disgraced teaching career at Yale only to find himself among the ultra-PC ranks of teachers at an Ohio public high school. Boston will play the school’s principal. Murphy will play a teacher.
