New project!
Joss Whedon’s HBO sci-fi drama The Nevers casts 12 actors
Joss Whedon‘s return to series television is revealing its full ensemble cast.
The Firefly and Buffy the Vampire Slayer creator has an HBO sci-fi drama series in the works titled The Nevers “about a gang of Victorian women who find themselves with unusual abilities, relentless enemies, and a mission that might change the world.”
Below is the newly released full cast list that includes some familiar names — such as former Da Vinci’s Demons‘ star Tom Riley and Shaun of the Dead‘s Nick Frost.
Whedon is billed as executive producer, showrunner, writer, and director on the project, so The Avengers director is definitely all-in on this show. He’s joined on the writing-producing side by Buffy alums Jane Espenson and Doug Petrie. Also, GoT‘s battle-tested Bernie Caulfield has joined as an executive producer.
Amy Manson (Being Human) as Maladie – Committed by her husband (and genuinely unstable), she’s been warped by a power she can’t understand, and tortured by doctors intent on finding its source. She now lives underground, runs a gang and is on an infamous murder spree. She affects a theatrical parody of a bedlam waif, but mad as she is, she’s a woman with a purpose.
