Change of Thune

Patton Oswalt's loss is Nick Thune's gain this week on Beach Lane, the NBC comedy pilot which did some mysterious last minute cast shuffling last week after a table read. Comedian Thune, best known for his parts in Knocked Up and Unaccompanied Minors, will assume Oswalt's former role of an irresponsible millionaire heir given the job of running his struggling small-town newspaper. Matthew Broderick will co-star as a celebrity journalist enlisted to help. [Deadline]
