Anthony Weiner may have a second chance after all — in Hollywood.
The disgraced New York politician will appear this week in an episode of Amazon’s politically themed original series, “Alpha House.”
Weiner will appear as himself in the new series, which centers around four senators who live together in a Washington, DC, home.
The episode will also feature cameos by a number of Washington bigwigs, including national GOP Chairman Michael Steele, CNN analyst Jeffrey Toobin and former NBC News anchor Tom Brokaw.
“Alpha House” stars John Goodman and Mark Consuelos, and was created by “Doonesbury” comic-strip author Garry Trudeau.
