Maura Tierney is in negotiations for the lead in ABC's new legal drama "The Whole Truth," a role left vacant after Joely Richardson departed, reports
Deadline. Tierney had to leave NBC's
dramedy series "Parenthood" due to illness. She recently rejoined FX's "Rescue Me," where she has had a recurring role. "The Whole Truth" shows how a case is built from both sides: defense and
prosecution.
