Sad news for Craig T. Nelson today as Deadline reveals Denis Leary has secured our latest fictional coaching position. He'll play head coach of the Cleveland Browns in Draft Day, an Ivan Reitman film that will see him at odds with general manager Kevin Costner over which dudes to pick in football's annual bachelor auction. Part of the film will be shot at the actual draft, which heads to Radio City Music Hall in just over two weeks, making this casting a rushed priority. As such, producers had to give into Leary's demands, and now the Cleveland Browns coach will be a sardonic New York City municipal worker who always wears a leather jacket.

Looks like someone's angling to get that last star-shaped hole in their "Portraying One of New York's Finest" punch card. Denis Leary has signed on to play George Stacy, father of Peter Parker love-interest Gwen Stacy in Marc Webb's Spider-Man reboot. Leary's character is a police captain who, in comics lore, dies because of one of Spider-Man's battles, making his daughter hate the superhero. After spending the last decade on The Job and, subsequently, Rescue Me, you'd think he'd be ready to finally tackle portraying one of the brave men of New York's Department of Sanitation, wouldn't you?
