Mario Lopez Lands Role on CW Pilot

With all of the exposure that Mario Lopez got from Dancing With the Stars, it was only a matter of time before he’d land on a TV series. Word is that he’ll co-star with singer Christina Milian in a comedy pilot for the CW, called Eight Days a Week. The show is about twentysomethings in their New York working environments, with Lopez playing a sharp-dressed boss and Milian taking on the role of an assistant. Johnny Lewis and Robert Ri’chard will also play assistants—Lewis to a rock-band publicist, and Ri’chard to Lopez’s character. Since Lopez appeared on Dancing With the Stars, his career has experienced some upticks, including duties as a co-host and correspondent of the entertainment news show Extra and taking on hosting responsibilities for the 2007 Miss America pageant.
