COLUMBIA, South Carolina — State lawmakers took time out of their business today to have a few laughs with actor Danny McBride. The Eastbound and Down star was introduced in front of a session of the House of Representatives.
Lawmakers applauded the three's decision to call South Carolina home. Rep. Peter McCoy thanks the three for choosing to live, work and raise their kids in South Carolina. The group will start production on a new HBO show in Charleston on Monday. "The Righteous Gemstones" will star Danny McBride as a dysfunctional televangelist. The show will also star John Goodman. The production will use Charleston locals as extras in the program.
