The cast of FX’s Legion TV pilot has added Katie Aselton (The League), with Entertainment Weekly reporting that the actress is set to play Amy, “the practical older sister to lead character David Haller (Dan Stevens), who does her best to remain positive, which proves difficult when her brother has spent years in and out of hospitals after being diagnosed as a schizophrenic.”

The X-Men series has been developed by Noah Hawley (Fargo), and will see Aselton and Dan Stevens joined in the cast by Aubrey Plaza (Dirty Grandpa), Jeremie Harris (A Walk Among the Tombstones) and Fargo alums Jean Smart (Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce) and Rachel Keller (Hollidaysburg).
