Sigourney Weaver and Ioan Gruffudd have signed on to join David Duchovny in the indie satire
The TV Set, says the Hollywood Reporter.
The story follows the making of a television pilot, with Duchovny playing the pilot's beleaguered showrunner. Weaver -- whose father, Sylvester "Pat" Weaver, was a top executive at NBC in the 1940s and '50s -- will play the head of a network, and Gruffudd will play a BBC exec who joins the network.
The project starts shooting August 18th.
