   David Boreanaz To Topline CBS' Navy SEAL Drama Pilot   
   by Nellie Andreeva   
      
   EXCLUSIVE: As Bones is heading into its series finale next week, star   
   David Boreanaz has been tapped as the lead of CBS' Navy SEAL drama pilot.   
      
   He replaces Jim Caviezel, who was cast in the role last week.   
      
   Caviezel, who has a long history with CBS as the star of the   
   long-running crime drama series Person Of Interest, has parted ways with   
   the network and the Navy SEAL pilot's producer CBS TV Studios over   
   creative differences.   
      
   Written by Ben Cavell and directed by Chris Chulack, the Navy SEAL   
   project follows the lives of the elite Navy SEALs as they train, plan   
   and execute the most dangerous, high-stakes missions our country can ask.   
      
   Boreanaz will play Jason, the respected, committed leader of his assault   
   team who's been through over a dozen deployments, with scars inside and out.

   We should all aspire to this level of consistency.   
      
   Today, Variety announced that the leading role in "CBS Upcoming Navy SEAL   
   Drama Pilot"—clearly a placeholder name, although CBS really should stick   
   with it, it's a hell of a power move—has found its lead actor in David   
   Boreanaz, also known as Seeley Booth, co-star of Bones.   
      
   But wait, you're probably wondering, isn't Bones still on the air? Yes, of   
   course it is, and always will be, as long as there are gyms with cable   
   subscriptions left in America. But new episodes of Bones will soon come to   
   an end, as the show's 12th season airs its finale on March 28, finally   
   bringing an end to 246 episodes of lots of squinting at computers and crime   
   scenes and also dinner tables. (If you watch this show like I do, on a   
   treadmill, without subtitles, it would appear this is what every episode is   
   about.)   
      
   So no, Boreanaz is not abandoning the much-beloved TV ship he has long   
   steered alongside Emily Deschanel for all these years, he is gracefully   
   transitioning from the end of one job to the beginning of another. And there   
   is no one on television better at this than David Boreanaz.

   Legend has it—and by "legend" we mean "the special features of the Buffy the   
   Vampire Slayer DVDs"—that David Boreanaz's big break came when Buffy casting   
   director Marcia Shulman, looking to cast The Most Handsome Man Ever as   
   tortured vampire-with-a-soul Angel got a call from a friend who spotted him   
   walking his dog and told Shulman that he was her guy. At that point—which,   
   presumably, was sometime in 1996, ahead of Buffy's premiere in the Spring of   
   1997—Boreanaz had been struggling to make it as an actor for five years   
   following his 1991 graduation from Ithaca College, with no credits to his   
   name other than two roles as an uncredited extra, an episode of Married With   
   Children, and a role in a no-budget homebrew horror anthology called The   
   Macabre Pair of Shorts. And then, just like that, he became a steady   
   presence on television for going on 25 years: Buffy led to Angel, which led   
   to Bones, which led to CBS Upcoming Navy Seal Drama Pilot.
