It has been a while since the last time we got our saw the Rose Byrne-Glenn Close combination in the world of high stakes moral litigation.

Press Release: 
The fifth season of DirecTV’s Damages looks to be the series last, but they will go out like it came in as far as the guest roles are concerned. Not only is Ryan Phillippe signed on to fill the role of a Julian Assange-like character, but now Dharma & Greg’s Jenna Elfman is on board to play a bank employee who spills company secrets to Phillippe’s character. 
While few people watch Damages now that it is on DirecTV, that does not change the fact that the show is still high quality scripted television. Actors are attracted to great content and that is probably why Ryan Phillippe will be on the next season of Damages for a ten-episode story arc as a ‘Julianne Assange’-type character. 
Rose Byrne has just joined the cast of The Place Beyond the Pines which stars Bradley Cooper and Ryan Gosling. She will play Bradley Cooper’s character’s wife in this thriller that puts cop-turned politician (Coopers) versus bank robber (Gosling).
