LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - "Deadwood" veteran Brent Sexton has been added to the cast of NBC's upcoming drama "Life."

The series centers on an ex-cop (Damian Lewis) who rejoins the force after being wrongfully imprisoned for years.

Sexton plays the cop's former partner Bobby Starks, a role he originated in the pilot as a guest star.

Sexton, who played Harry Manning on HBO's "Deadwood," recently completed two episodes of Showtime's "Weeds."
