Blair Underwood is joining the cast of the new ABC drama "Dirty Sexy Money," which will debut in the fall.
The 42-year-old will be playing the character of Simon Elder, a visionary billionaire that will be introduced in the storyline later in the season.
'Dirty Sexy Money' is about the Darling family, a fictitious wealthy family that Underwood could be a potential nemesis against.
The show, which is scheduled to premiere on Sept. 26, also includes Donald Sutherland, William Baldwin and Peter Krause.
Underwood is also starring in the HBO drama series "In Treatment," set for 2008, and will reprise the character of Mr. Harris opposite Julia Louis-Dreyfus on CBS' "The New Adventures of Old Christine."


46. I LOOK AT BLAIR UNDERWOOD EVERY SINGLE DAY. I TAPED A PICTURE OF HIM ON MY PHONE AT WORK, SO I COULD SEE BEAUTY ALL DAY. HE IS SEXYJUST BY STANDING THERE.
THE LOVE SCENE WITH JADA IN "SET IT OFF" WAS AWESOME.
HE PLAYED THE PART SO GOOD IN FAMILY REUNION, THAT IF THEY HAD NOT SHOWN THE OUTTAKES WHERE HE WAS LAUGHING AT THE GRITS, I WOULD HAVE SAID HE PLAYED THE PART TOO GOOD. I LOVE THAT MAN.
