Is Morgan Freeman About to Show Up on Primetime? "One Never Knows"

Jul 17 2014 - 10:33am

Téa Leoni is the star of CBS's upcoming political drama Madam Secretary, but someone may already be upstaging her. Morgan Freeman [1] is the show's executive producer — or as he referred to himself, "executive executive executive executive producer" — and when asked at the show's Summer TCA [2] panel whether he would appear on the show, he was a bit tight-lipped. "One never knows, do one?" he mused. "Whether or not I show up is going to depend on the opera, and what the idea that comes up is." Can I put in my vote for president? He's already played the commander in chief before (see: Deep Impact, Olympus Has Fallen), so he's definitely prepared for the role. Madam Secretary premieres Sept. 21 at 8 p.m., and you can check out the trailer [3] now.
