When I saw Brian Austin Green several months back on the red carpet at the DVD release for "Beverly Hills 90210." he playfully smooched former co-star Jason Priestly for photogs. Now I realize he was just rehearsing! According to The Hollywoodwood Reporter, Green will play a gay man in a new comedy pilot from the creators of "Will & Grace." The untitled CBS project, from David Kohan and Max Mutchnick, is about two friends and writing partners, one straight and one gay (Green), and the women working with them (Jessica Capshaw, Vanessa Lengies). The project is loosely based on Kohan and Mutchnick's friendship.
Green proved he had terrific comic chops co-starring on ABC's comedy "Freddie." He was the funniest thing about that show, kinda like Barney on "How I Met Your Mother." Trivia: Did you know that Brian played Donna Mills son on "Knots Landing"? I did!
