According to The Hollywood Reporter, Delroy Lindo has traded in his CBS All Access pass for a lead role in the ABC drama Harlem’s Kitchen.
Harlem’s Kitchen will see the veteran actor play Ellis Rice, a famous chef who serves the residents of Harlem’s Kitchen, all of whom are considered family — so long as they play by his rules.
“My time working on The Good Fight has been a rich and rewarding collaboration with Robert and Michelle King,” Lindo said in announcing his departure.
Lindo has starred in a number of high-profile films including Spike Lee’s Malcolm X, Get Shorty, Ransom, as well as TV shows Kidnapped and The Chicago Code.
