Henry Winkler Is Working On An Exciting New Project

While Henry Winkler is best known for his role as Fonzie on Happy Days, he has definitely stayed busy over the years. Henry not only has a Hollywood Walk of Fame star but three Emmy Awards and two Golden Globes. Now, he’s gearing up for an exciting new project.

Henry is set to star in an Aleeza Chanowitz Israeli/U.S. crossover comedy Chanshi. Henry will play Tatty, the father of Chanshi (played by Aleeza Chanowitz). Producers are looking to air it in the United States and internationally, specifically on the Israeli network HOT.
