[TV] ‘Ring’ and ‘Grudge’ Star Solves Crimes In “Anatomy Of Violence”
In her first TV gig since her memorable season-long arc on “House,” Amber Tamblyn, pictured, has signed on as the female lead opposite Skeet Ulrich in the CBS drama pilot “Anatomy Of Violence,” written and executive produced by “Homeland‘s” Howard Gordon, Alex Gansa and Alex Cary and directed by Mark Pellington, reports Deadline.
“Inspired by the nonfiction book by Adrian Raine, the 20th TV-produced drama centers on Raines (Ulrich), a maverick FBI Criminal Psychiatrist with an expertise in sociopaths who partners with Abby (Tamblyn), a young female FBI Agent with whom he shares a conflicted past. Abby joined the Bureau after watching her sister get traumatized at the hands of a gunman thirteen years ago.”
Tamblyn hit the genre scene with The Ring remake, as well as The Grudge 2. Pellington directed the astounding Arlington Road.
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
