Josh Groban to play detective in new Netflix series

Los Angeles — Josh Groban is adding the role of police detective to his TV resume.

Netflix said Wednesday that Groban will play a straight-laced New York City detective on The Good Cop.

The actor-singer will star opposite Tony Danza, who plays his father. Danza's character, a disgraced NYPD officer, is the street-wise adviser to his cautious son.

Groban has appeared in a number of TV series, including Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and The Office.

He made his Tony-nominated Broadway debut last year in Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812.

Andy Breckman, who created the series Monk, is an executive producer for The Good Cop.

A release date for the 10-episode comedy-drama series was not announced.
