Blair Underwood, Melissa George and Dianne Wiest File In Treatment For HBO

Blair Underwood, Melissa George and Dianne Wiest are set to join the HBO drama, In Treatment.

Gabriel Byrne stars in the show as Paul, a therapist who is calm, smooth, insightful and nonconfrontational with his patients but becomes a testy self-doubting man full of barely concealed anger when he is a patient seeing his own shrink. The show is based on the popular and critically acclaimed Israeli series.

Underwood will play one of Paul's patients, a fighter pilot who suffers the effects of a botched raid he was involved in years before that killed not only he three perpetrators but three underage hostages. The Hollywood Reporter adds George will play another patient, a resident in anesthesia at John Hopkins Hospital who is infatuated with the older, married Paul. Wiest will play Paul's former supervisor and mentor who he goes to see for a therapy session eight years after dropping her.

In Treatment is in pre-production; look for it to start airing next year on HBO.
