Ahna O’Reilly (The Help Fruitvale Station) is set as the lead in the CW drama pilot Identity, exec produced by Alex Kurtzman and Bob Orci. Written by Corinne Brinkerhoff, Identity centers on Mia (O’Reilly), a grounded, whip-smart but restless young New Yorker who finds her world upended when she learns she needs an organ transplant to survive and her only living relative is a newfound half-brother from a wealthy and powerful family in Charleston, SC. She connects with the family only to find they’re the target of a CIA investigation, and the agency wants her as their newest informant. Her loyalty and morality are tested as she slowly builds a case against the family who saved her life. CBS Studios, K/O Paper Products and Scripted World are producing.

Seems like a good choice, but i doubt this will be picked so it doesnt even matter
ReplyDeleteI agree. The plot sounds good but not like something the CW would air.
ReplyDeleteKinda reminds of Deception. I liked that show, so I'm gonna give this a try if it gets picked up.
ReplyDeleteIf I'm being honest, I'd hoped they'd cast a teen as the lead character. I haven't seen Ahna's acting, but with this casting and plot it doesn't seem CW-y.
