Veteran actor Geoff Pierson has booked a recurring role opposite Jenna Fischer and Oliver Hudson in ABC’s single-camera comedy series "Splitting Up Together", from "Suburgatory" and "Selfie" creator Emily Kapnek, Ellen DeGeneres’ A Very Good Prods. and Warner Bros TV.
Executive producer and showrunner Emily Kapnek says, “Geoff is a fantastic actor and I’m so thrilled to have the chance to work with him again on this show.”
Written by Kapnek, based on the 2016 Danish series created by Mette Heeno and directed by Dean Holland, "Splitting Up Together" is the story of a couple, Lena (Fischer) and Martin (Hudson) whose marriage is reignited by their divorce. They still live in the same house, alternating weeks, with one living upstairs and doing the parenting while the other lives downstairs in the guest apartment.
Pierson will play Henry, the wry and supportive father of Lena (Fischer) who sees clearly that his daughter has control issues. He can currently be seen recurring on ABC's "Designated Survivor".
