John Goodman Will Be Starring In Both ‘The Conners’ And Another Televangelist Series

John Goodman might be the busiest guy in TV right now. In addition to starring in Roseanne’s spinoff, The Conners, he will also be starring alongside Danny McBride for the HBO pilot, The Righteous Gemstones.

According to a synopsis, the show will have religious undertones, focusing on a world-famous televangelist family who have let fame allow them to stray from the path of righteousness. John will star as Eli Gemstone, the patriarch of the family. He is described by the outlet as “an unbending force in the ministry game.”

This is definitely the year of John!
