David E. Kelley has been behind some of the best TV dramas in recent years, and he could very well have another one on his hands with the Netflix limited series A Man in Full. The creator of Big Little Lies, Anatomy of a Scandal and Netflix's The Lincoln Lawyer dives into the world of politics and business in a story about a real estate mogul's fall from grace.
Kelley's not alone in bringing his talents to the series. Regina King is onboard as an executive producer, the series is an adaptation of a Tom Wolfe novel and the cast is absolutely stacked, led by Jeff Daniels.
