Nina Dobrev Lands Role In New CBS Pilot
Nina Dobrev has landed her next role! The young actress is set to star in CBS’ new comedy pilot, Fam.
According to Deadline, “Clem (Dobrev) whose younger half-sister, Shannon (Odessa Adlon), comes to live with her and her fiancé to escape their train wreck of a father.” The site goes on to say that “Dobrev’s Clem is grounded, deeply funny, quick-witted and outspoken. She was a bit of a hot mess in her younger years but since then, she has worked hard to create the best version of herself and her life is on track. She is a real charmer who is ecstatic when Jay, the love of her life, proposes. In the ‘best version of herself’ she claims that her own father is long dead, but the fact is that her dad, Freddy Banks, whom she hasn’t seen in 10 years, is such an embarrassment that she has lied about his death. And when her half-sister, Shannon (Adlon), shows up unexpectedly, Clem’s lie is about to become painfully obvious to everyone who trusted and believed her. And that lie just may end her relationship with Jay for good.”
Production on the new pilot will get underway shortly in Los Angeles. Fans should no by May if it was picked up for the Fall TV season!
Congrats to Nina!
