Seann William Scott Plans Return to TV with Fox Pilot 'This Country'

Seann William Scott is headed back to television in This Country for Fox.

Deadline reports that series is based on the BBC Three series.

The half-hour mockumentary follows the daily lives of cousins Kelly and Shrub Mallet, who are trailed by a documentary crew who go to a small town to study young adults and their current concerns in an idiosyncratic surrounding, and will see the pair while they pursue their dreams, confront challenges and fight each other for frozen pizza.

Seann plays Father Joe., a recent transplant from Minneapolis who is doing the best he can with what he’s got.

Father Joe is a community leader in the town of Flatch, Ohio, and a father figure to Shrub and Kelly – he tries really hard to remain calm and although these two often test his patience, he is resolved to stay an optimist and a role model.

Seann previously starred in the third season of Lethal Weapon.

If you didn’t know, Seann just recently got secretly married at the end of last year.
