As we reported several times, comedian and actor Martin Lawrence is coming back to television in a new series with Kelsey Grammer titled Partners for the FX Network.
Grammer and Lawrence play two Chicago lawyers from vastly different backgrounds who unexpectedly meet in court as they each face a personal crisis. Marcus Jackson (Lawrence) is a kind-hearted community activist going through a heartbreaking divorce when he meets Allen Braddock (Grammer), an elitist lawyer who has just been fired from his father’s firm. Brought together by fate and desperation, they develop a partnership and friendship, forcing each other to find the balance between the ethical and the unscrupulous in both their professional and personal lives.
The show premieres on August 4th at 9PM. You can check out a promo spot below:
