## Summary

Netflix has finalised the cast for its upcoming Las Vegas casino drama "The Roman," adding five actors to a series already led by Oscar Isaac. Vincent D'Onofrio and Kate Mara join as series regulars, Clancy Brown and Thomas Sadoski take recurring roles, and Jason Schwartzman appears as a guest star, Variety reported. The additions round out an ensemble drama from "Billions" creators Brian Koppelman and David Levien, with Martin Scorsese also serving as an executive producer.

The eight-episode series follows Robert "Bobby Red" Redman (Isaac), a casino president fighting to secure his position in a modern but still perilous Las Vegas. D'Onofrio plays MMA mogul Dominic Ward, while Mara takes on Holly Reeve, an entrepreneur with a complicated history with Bobby; Brown plays enigmatic fixer Elwood, Sadoski a self-destructive celebrity chef, and Schwartzman a debt-ridden casino heir. They join previously announced cast members Betty Gilpin, Alec Baldwin, David Costabile, Shalom Brune-Franklin and Jimmy O. Yang, with JC Chandor directing the first two episodes.
