Zachary Levi won't have a whole lot of down time between TV jobs.The "Chuck" star, who wrapped filming on that series in December, has picked up his next role in FOX's comedy pilot "Let It Go." Levi took the part after fielding multiple offers in the wake of "Chuck" ending, Deadline reports. His casting lifts a contingency on the pilot and gives it a formal green light.
"Let It Go" will center on a married couple (Levi is playing the husband), the husband's best friend and the wife's sister as they deal with life's small annoyances. DJ Nash ("'Til Death," "Traffic Light") created it and is executive producing with Peter Tolan ("Rescue Me") and Michael Wimer.
