More from Deadline

McRaney and Brown are two of three This Is Us actors to win Emmys for their performances, along with the late Ron Cephas Jones.

The premise of Fogelman’s new drama has not been revealed but it is believed to revolve around the President (Marsden) and his Secret Service detail led by Brown’s character.

McRaney will portray Kane, the father of President (Marsden), a captain of industry and kingmaker.

Bloom will play Jane, a young secret service agent who considers Brown’s character a mentor/father-figure.

Beavers is Billy, a fellow secret service agent on the President’s detail and one of Sterling K. Brown character’s best friends.

Marshall will play Agent Robinson, a lead secret service agent and professional rival of Sterling K. Brown’s character.
