Henry Winkler, the actor known for his role as the Fonz on "Happy Days," has taken on a new sitcom role, playing Ava’s father on NBC’s "Up All Night," according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Ava, played by Maya Rudolph, is the host of a fictional TV show on the comedy. Winkler will play Robert Alexander, a children’s book author beloved by a generation of readers, with whom Ava has had to compete for his attention, the story says.
The episode featuring Winkler’s guest appearance doesn’t yet have an airdate, according to the piece.
Well that should be an interesting mix up. Maya’s character is a bit out of the box and its taken time for me to grow a liking for her, but I’m thinking this might just work out rather nicely. 🙂
