Washington, Feb. 11 -- Rhys Darby has been cast in the lead role for CBS' upcoming comedy pilot Regency, Variety has reported.
The multi-camera project, which received its initial order in December, is described in its official logline as "a historical spin on the classic multi-cam family sitcom, centred around the upper-middle class Tillbrooks as they navigate life, love, and scandal in 19th Century England," reported Variety.

He will go to great lengths to prove his masculinity, though his privileged upbringing reveals itself every time," as quoted by Variety...
