"Beverly Hills S.U.V.", an upcoming pilot show from NBC, is now
casting many starring and supporting roles for its premiere episode.

With Emmy-winning producer Larry Wilmore as executive producer, this
new sitcom will be an ensemble comedy about the competitive
salespeople who work at an upscale Beverly Hills car
dealership. The show will have a similar tone in many ways to the
David Mamet film "Glengarry Glen Ross".

Wilmore has also produced the hit NBC show "Whoopi" and Fox Network's
"The Bernie Mac Show", for which he won an Emmy in 2002 for
Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series.

"Beverly Hills S.U.V." is being produced by Wilmore Films in
association with NBC Television. The first episode will be directed by
newcomer Jamie Burrows.

None of the cast members have been set yet.

"Beverly Hills S.U.V." has a wide variety of principal and supporting
roles still open.

The show is scheduled to begin production in April 2004.
