Wagner Moura (“Narcos”) is set to star opposite Brian Tyree Henry in Apple TV+’s crime drama series “Sinking Spring,” from “Top Gun: Maverick” writer Peter Craig, in a recasting.
According to Deadline, “Better Call Saul” alum Michael Mando was originally tapped for the role but has been let go after an on-set physical altercation with another cast member. The recasting is being done during filming on the series, directed and executive produced by Ridley Scott via his Scott Free Productions.
About ‘Sinking Springs’
“Sinking Spring” is based on the book Dennis Tafoya’s book, “Dope Thief,” and follows long-time Philly friends and delinquents who pose as DEA agents to rob an unknown house in the countryside, only to have their small-time grift become a life-and-death enterprise, as they unwittingly reveal and unravel the biggest hidden narcotics corridor on the Eastern seaboard.
Moura will play Manny Cespedes, a good-hearted friend of Ray’s (Henry), who he first met when they did time together in the Youth Authority.
