The “American Pie” star is to play a man unlucky in love in the multi-cam sitcom from indie Thunderbird Films for broadcaster Citytv.
TORONTO – Eugene Levy is to guest star in the Canadian sitcom Package Deal as a man unlucky in love.
Levy will appear in three episodes of the multi-camera comedy as a repeatedly-married man whose wives keep mysteriously dying, providing a challenge for his lawyer, played by series lead Randall Edwards.
The Canadian sitcom from Thunderbird Films for Citytv portrays three overly-close brothers and the woman who comes between them.

Citytv ordered 13 half-hours of Package Deal, which is shooting this Fall in suburban Vancouver, ahead of broadcast as a mid-season series in 2013.
Endemol Group will distribute the series internationally.
