According to The Hollywood Reporter, John Slattery, Allison Tolman and Rafe Spall have been confirmed to star in an upcoming pilot of Hulu's new series 'Kansas City'. The comedy will explore the rivalry between the two sides of the city - liberal East K.C. and conservative West K.C. In the program, cultural and political division have divided the area so much a literal wall is built between the East and West. Spall will star Ben Graham, a citizen of East K.C. who after divorcing his wife, played by Tolman, is forced to visit his teenage daughter in West K.C. Slattery himself plays Ellis Brookmeyer, Ben's former father-in-law and the last mayor of unified Kansas City.
