Dana Delany (Body of Proof, Desperate Housewives, Hand of God) has been cast in a leading series regular role on The Code, a midseason CBS drama per Deadline. Delany will play Colonel Eisa Turnbull, originally played by Mira Sorvino in the pilot. The part was one of two recasts and Deadline notes that it was planned for the character of Eisa Turnbull to become a recurring one but once Delany was cast that completely changed given her success on television.
