Netflix’s Las Vegas-set drama series “The Roman” adds Shalom Brune-Franklin and Jimmy O. Yang to its cast, joining Oscar Isaac, who stars and executive produces. The series is created by Brian Koppelman and David Levien, known for “Billions” and “Super Pumped,” and is described as a drama centered on the casino world.
Brune-Franklin, who has appeared in “Dune: Prophecy” and “Sunny Dancer,” is set to play Jessica Christine “JC” Griffin. Both outlets describe JC as an alert, ambitious rising star at the casino. Jimmy O. Yang, known for “Interior Chinatown,” is also confirmed to have a role in the series, though the specific character details are not included in the provided excerpts.
Variety and Deadline both report the casting as the latest updates to “The Roman,” with Brune-Franklin and Yang landing new parts in a production led by Isaac and built around creators Koppelman and Levien’s established drama track record.
