John Leguizamo Lands Lead In CBS Comedy Pilot ‘Taxi-22′

John Leguizamo has been cast as the lead in “Taxi-22,” a TV project actor James Gandolfini had been developing for over three years before his death in 2013.

“It’s more history stuff, so it’s like some of the Aztecs, the Incas, the Civil War, the Revolutionary War,” Leguizamo said. “I talk about World War I, World War II—all the contributions of Latin people to America. We’ve been here since the beginning—before, during and now.”
