Alimi Ballard (Fast Five, Numb3rs) has been tapped for a heavily recurring role opposite Chibuikem Uche on YA mystery drama One Of Us Is Lying, Peacock’s series adaptation of Karen M. McManus’ novel.
Written by Erica Saleh and based on McManus’ novel, One Of Us Is Lying is the story of what happens when five high schoolers walk into detention and only four make it out alive. Everyone is a suspect, and everyone has something to hide.
Ballard will play Kevin Clay. An ex-athlete, he’s Cooper’s (Uche) intense but loving father/coach, who just wants for his son to become a baseball star and have a (much) better life than he ever did.
