Former Will And Grace star Eric McCormack is to star in a new film about the con artist known as Clark Rockefeller.

Eric, who played Will in the long-running US sitcom, has signed up for two new TV projects with one about Rockefeller and another where he will star in a single-camera comedy that is said to be heading to networks soon.

The film about Rockefeller sees McCormack play German con artist Christian Karl Gerhartsreiter come to the US as a foreign exchange student and impersonate a number of people.

He soon becomes a fixture in high society and claims to be Clark Rockefeller – an heir to a famous dynasty.

Shooting for the film about Rockefeller is said to be scheduled to start in October for a March 2010 release.
