Danny Glover joins Kiefer Sutherland in FOX’s Touch

Danny Glover is going to have his hands full pretty soon, since TVLine recently revealed that he’s going to be dealing with a kid that can peek into the future.

Glover is joining the FOX series, Touch, as Arthur DeWitt, a professor who works with gifted children, but ‘gifted’ for him means children that are really good with numbers, not predicting events before they happen. Kiefer Sutherland, who hasn’t done a series since 24, stars as the father and David Mazouz is the future-seeing boy.

Tim Kring, the guy behind Heroes, wrote the script and will be executive producing along with Sutherland, Katherine Pope and Peter Chernin. Hopefully, Kring’s presence doesn’t mean we’ll get an awesome pilot and first season, with everything crashing and burning after that.

Touch is being looked at as a midseason replacement but that’s not a slight against it since production couldn’t start until Sutherland completed his Broadway commitment for the revival of Jason Miller’s That Championship Season.

Are you ready to get ‘Touched’?
