The Leverage team is back to its old capers and in the first episode of season 5, Cary Elwes is on their radar.

The Princess Bride star is set to guest star in the premiere, playing Scott Roemer, a modern day Howard Hughes who is the owner of Global Transit Airlines. The team cons the unscrupulous Roemer into thinking he has a chance to steal Hugh’s famous Spruce Goose, but after he seemingly takes the bait, he comes to realize all is not as it seems.

Leverage returns with 15 new episodes this summer. Season 4 of the caper drama averaged 4.8 million viewers.

First Look: Cary Elwes on "Leverage"
Jun 26, 2012
by TV Guide Magazine News

Timothy Hutton and the rest of "Leverage's" badass band of do-gooders have faced some pretty nasty foes in their four years of taking down the establishment.

But when Season 5 premieres July 15, "Psych" veteran Cary Elwes will introduce them to a millionaire heavy who literally brings villainy to new heights.

"I play Scott Roemer, a very arrogant guy who owns an airline," says Elwes.

"He cuts corners on the maintenance of his aircraft, causing a terrible accident that kills some of his employees. He obviously needs to learn a lesson, and that's where the Leverage team comes in."

But what's their plan?

"Roemer's a big fan of Howard Hughes," hints the actor, "and they always use their baddies' weaknesses."

They trick Roemer into believing they're going to help him buy Hughes' legendary plane, the Spruce Goose, from Oregon's Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum — and then teach him that right is the only way to fly.
