Michael Clarke Duncan has joined Fox's upcoming Bones spin-off pilot, TVLine reports.
The 53-year-old actor will co-star in Episode 19 of the Fox crime procedural, which will likely serve as a planted spin-off for the new project.
Based on The Locator books by Richard Greener, the Bones spin-off follows Walter Sherman (aka "the Locator"), a former military policeman who can find anything. Duncan will play Walter's partner, Leo, a tough cowboy philosopher. The lead role of Walter is still being cast.

Cool. I love Bones - a spinoff would be good, I think.

Geoff Stults has been tapped to star in the upcoming Bones spinoff.
Stults will play Walter Sherman, a former military police officer who can find just about anything, hence the nickname "the Locator."
The pilot for the spinoff, based on The Locator novels by Richard Greener, will air as Episode 19 of the current Bones season. Michael Clarke Duncan will also appear as Walter's partner Leo.

Don't mind the idea of a spin-off, as long as the main show continues!

usually spin-offs feature people from the previous show, think bones has gone a bit far with the gross bodies

What they really need to do is a Bones/House crossover, that'd be worth watching.

It's a bit cheeky to call it a spin-off when it features a character only in one episode and, on top of that, with an entirely different premise. At least the CSI spin-offs are the same idea and the Law & Order ones feature characters crossing over to each one.

I watched this and thought that it was good. Had the same sort of humour as Bones, and hints at the back story. Could be fun to watch. And the occasional cameo from Brennan & Booth could be good for the Bones fans. They should run it at the times when Bones is in production, and then vice versa when it is finished for a season.
Looking forward to this.

The thing that annoyed me intensely was Saffron Burrows pretending to be a cockney, it was too much. Hopefully, she'll tone it down, or it'll be like watching Eastenders.

Sorry to be pedantic but it isn't a spin off its a back door pilot.

(One issue for some fans: the British actress played the role with a rather striking cockney accent.)

Perhaps they read Boards?

Thank Gods - her accent went through my head in the pilot... Wonder who they'll get to fill the role... Personally I'd like to see them drop the cockney thing and have a southern belle type role - if that were the case I'd love to see Amy Acker in the role (because she did the southern accent perfectly in "Angel" and she's an incredible actress)...

Or... and I'm just throwing it out there because I think it's about time she made a return to tv... Tiffani Amber Thiessen (mmmm... Kelly Kapowski :P)

The first episode seemed entertaining enough, and much better than the Bones cross-over, especially with Saffron Burrows not being in it. She would have done my head in.:D

The ratings crept up with the 2nd episode, and they had a cross-over visit from Dr. Sweets.

The Miami Vice tribute was amusing.

It's numbers thus far are average, it's a middle show, as in not a hit or flop. I'm not bothered to call it's chances.
