Ray Romano to Star in Netflixs No Good Deed Series From Liz Feldman

Posted by Martina Birk on Monday, January 1, 0001

Ray Romano has signed on to star in Liz Feldman’s forthcoming dark comedy at Netflix, “No Good Deed.”

According to Netflix, the “Everybody Loves Raymond” star will portray Paul, a contractor desperate to retire, pay off his debts and get out of Los Angeles. Constantly stressed and flat broke, Paul’s solution to his money problems is to sell his beautiful Los Feliz home, but his past mistakes will continue to haunt him.

The eight-episode dark comedy follows “three very different families vying to buy the very same 1920s Spanish style villa that they think will solve all their problems. But as the sellers have already discovered, sometimes the home of your dreams can be a total nightmare,” per the official logline.

“’No Good Deed’ was inspired by my many late nights during the early pandemic maniacally searching Zillow listings for a way out of my house,” said Feldman at the time. “I’m endlessly grateful to Netflix for being such a supportive creative home and for continuing to allow me to turn my crippling anxiety into entertainment.”

The “Dead to Me” creator serves as an executive producer along with Will Ferrell, Jessica Elbaum of Gloria Sanchez Productions, Christie Smith and Silver Tree. Tree will direct the “No Good Deed” pilot, along with additional episodes.

Romano’s directorial debut, “Somewhere in Queens” (which he wrote, produced, and starred in) premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival and was released in theatres April 2023. The film can now be streamed on Hulu. Most recently, he was also featured in episodes of Pete Davidson’s Peacock comedy series “Bupkis.”

He can next be seen in Apple’s “Project Artemis,” alongside Scarlett Johansson, Woody Harrelson and Channing Tatum, with Greg Berlanti set to direct.

Romano is repped by CAA, The Conversation Company and Del Shaw Moonves.
