Matthew Broderick and Son James Wilkie Broderick Will Guest Star on Elsbeth Together


Matthew Broderick and son James Wilkie Broderick are slated to appear in the CBS procedural 'Elsbeth' in 2025, which marks the first time the father-son duo will appear on screen together.

Matthew, 62, will play Lawrence Grey, the man “Manhattan’s elite call” when they want to make sure their kids “get into the prep school and then college of their choice … no matter their grades, test scores or personality" on the CBS procedural, according to an official release from the network. James is slated to play Carl, a top “success trainer” at Lawrence Grey’s company, Outmatch Educational Consulting.
