Last week it was announced that Lauren Cohan has signed on to star in the upcoming ABC TV pilot Whiskey Cavalier, and now comes word that she will be joined by one of her former co-stars on The Walking Dead in Tyler James Williams.
Created by Dave Hemingson, Whiskey Cavalier is “a high-octane hour-long action dramedy that follows the adventures of tough but tender FBI super agent Will Chase (Scott Foley) who, following an emotional break-up, is assigned to work with badass CIA operative Francesca “Frankie” Trowbridge (Cohan). Together, they lead an inter-agency team of flawed, funny, heroic spies who periodically save the world (and each other) while navigating the rocky roads of friendship, romance and office politics.”
Deadline reports that Williams will play Edgar Standish, “a rogue NSA analyst who hacked the State Department’s mainframe. A jittery genius, he now has enough super-secret information to get him bought off, imprisoned or killed by a dozen governments — if Will and Frankie don’t get to him first.”
