Braugher, an NBC veteran from his days on "Homicide: Life on the Street," was supposed to play a patient who enters the hospital with a seemingly innocent cough but suffers a stroke while waiting to be treated. He'll be heading to the bigscreen instead, co-starring in the Fox sequel "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer," which is in pre-production.
Whitaker is currently co-starring on FX cop skein "The Shield" and plays Uganda dictator Idi Amin in Fox Searchlight's "The Last Kind of Scotland," to be released Sept. 27.
