CBS' FBI: Most Wanted & Tommy; FOX's Untitled Annie Weisman; and Syfy's (Future) Cult Classic.
CBS' FBI: MOST WANTED
- Kellan Lutz and Roxy Sternberg have been cast on the potential spinoff of FBI starring Julian McMahon. Lutz previously starred in the Twilight feature film franchise. He can currently be seen in the film What Men Want starring Taraji P. Henson. Sternberg starred in the second season of National Geographic's Mars and had a recurring role on NBC's Emerald City.
- Lutz will play Crosby, an FBI Agent and Army intelligence vet Jess (McMahon) has taken under his wing as a communications whiz.
- Sternberg will play Sheryl Barnes, an FBI Agent and an ex-NYPD detective with elevated street smarts.
SYFY's (FUTURE) CULT CLASSIC
- Emily Alyn Lind, Jacob McCarthy, Cayden Boyd, Da'Vinchi and Zoe Renee will star in the drama pilot written by Shay Hatten. Lind starred in the third season of CBS' Code Black. McCarthy currently stars in NBC's A.P. Bio, which returns for its second season in March. Boyd has recurred on MTV's Awkward and Paramount's Heathers. Da'Vinchi has recurred on Freeform's Grown-ish. Renee starred for two seasons in BET's The Quad.
- Lind will play Bree, a classic '90s horror-movie Final Girl stuck in the wrong decade. Her love of pop culture from past decades marks her as an outsider, a badge she wears proudly.
- McCarthy will play Andy, Bree's long-time best friend who wants to be more than that. He loves old horror movies and disdains the generation he grew up in even more than Bree does.
- Boyd will play Henry, a formerly popular kid whose status took a hit when he started hanging with Bree and her friends. He has a promising future in the emerging field of virtual reality sports, assuming he makes it out alive.
- Da'Vinchi will play Peyton, a football star who would be an A-lister in the present. But with football going out of style, he's unsure of his place - and not happy about it.
- Renee will play Mia, whose cheery optimism starts to seem a little creepy with people dying.

- She will play Abigail "Tommy" Thomas.

In her new role, Tommy uses her unflinching honest and hardball tactics to navigate the social, political and national security issues that converge with enforcing the law.
