Dan Stevens has landed the role intended for Armie Hammer in the upcoming Starz series Gaslit. Gaslit will focus on the Watergate scandal during the Nixon administration.
The 38-year-old actor will play John Dean, described by Variety as a “young White House Counsel torn between his ambition and his struggle with whether he can lie to protect the President.”
The series also stars Julia Roberts as Martha Mitchell (who in real life, was the first person to publicly call out Nixon’s involvement in the scandal), and Sean Penn as Attorney General John Mitchell, Martha’s husband.
Armie has been replaced in several projects now, but, there’s one upcoming project that he’s going to forge on as the lead, as of now. Hammer has been accused of rape in recent weeks.
Amazon has landed a star-studded cast to lead the upcoming dramatic anthology series Solos.
The new series is being developed by executive producer and showrunner David Weil, who created the show Hunters for Amazon.
Oscar winners Anne Hathaway, Morgan Freeman, and Helen Mirren are all part of the series, along with Uzo Aduba, Nicole Beharie, Anthony Mackie, Dan Stevens, and Constance Wu.
Solos is a dramatic and thought-provoking seven-part anthology series that explores the deeper meaning of human connection, as explored through the lens of the individual. Solos will tell unique character-driven stories, each from a different perspective and moment in time, that illuminate that even during our most seemingly isolated moments, in the most disparate of circumstances, we are all connected through the human experience.
Sam Taylor-Johnson, Zach Braff, Tiffany Johnson, and David Weil will direct episodes.
“I am beyond thrilled to be bringing Solos to life alongside this group of artists who I so deeply admire. I created this piece with a desire to capture stories about connection, hope and the search for that common hum of humanity that binds us all. I’m immensely grateful to Jennifer Salke and my incredible partners at Amazon for their unwavering support and collaboration on this special project,” Weil said in a statement.
Solos is expected to premiere on Amazon Prime Video later in 2021.

Dan Stevens is pulling double duty for HBO Max’s upcoming animated comedy series, The Prince.
The former Downton Abbey and Beauty and the Beast actor has signed on to voice both Prince Charles, and Prince Philip, in the new satirical show.
The show is described as a “satirical look at the life of Prince George of Cambridge, the youngest heir to the British throne, as he navigates the trials and tribulations of being a royal child.”
“Before George rules Britannia, he’ll be laying down his own laws in Gary Janetti’s comedic take on the future King of England’s childhood as seen from the prince’s own point of view,” the official summary reads. “Because his succession isn’t coming any time soon, in each episode George will find his path in life as a young prince in modern times – from the 775 rooms of Buckingham Palace to his family’s sea of corgis to primary school with commoners.”
Creator Gary Janetti will voice Prince George, with Orlando Bloom as Prince Harry, Alan Cumming as George’s butler Owen, Frances De La Tour as Queen Elizabeth, Lucy Punch as Kate Middleton, Condola Rashad at Meghan Markle, and Iwan Rheon as Prince William.
