Exclusive: It’s not officially the start of the Heathens getting back together but Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll alum Elaine Hendrix is reuniting with Mr. Johnny Rock himself Denis Leary in USA Network’s Erase pilot.
Having played Rock’s long-time love and Heathens’ back-up singer Ava Delany for two seasons with Leary on the FX music comedy, Hendrix has just sealed her deal to portray Bella Tanne on the Universal Cable Prods effort, I’ve learned.
Set as a series regular, The Parent Trap actor’s character is described as a one night or two night stand from the past of former slimy cop Donal O’Neal, played by Leary. Conceived and written for Hendrix by Leary, Tanne is a fun, loving and true problem solver, which is what a desperately running out of time O’Neal needs more than ever in Erase, which USA order in April.

John Corbett, who has been straddling careers as an actor and a musician, will blend the two with a starring opposite Denis Leary in FX‘s music comedy pilot Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll. Written by Leary, the project centers on Johnny Rock (Leary), the magnificently talented lead singer of New York’s legendary early-’90s band The Heathens. His best friend Flash (Corbett) was being called the next No. 1 lead guitar player on Earth, with their tandem compared to Mick Jagger and Keith Richards or Steven Tyler and Joe Perry. Minus the money. And the fame. And the ability to stay in the same room for longer than five minutes without wanting to kill each other. Still, the critics loved them.
