The Bakster Joins Soderbergh's 'Informant'
April 1, 2008 Comments

Somehow, despite his turns at romancing Murphy Brown, piloting a starship, and inhabiting the bodies of strangers to right their past mistakes, Scott Bakula's star has never really risen above his hirsute brow. Maybe that will finally change with news the actor has been cast as a lead opposite Matt Damon in Steven Soderbergh's The Informant. Bak will play "Brian Shepherd, an FBI agent who exposes an international price-fixing scheme with the help of biochemist Mark Whitacre (Damon)." Ziggy shows a 95% chance he will continue being popular only among sci-fi nerds and lonely middle-aged women who haven't yet discovered Patrick Dempsey.
