Ashleigh Murray Lands Role in CW’s “Tom Swift”
Ashleigh Murray is heading back to the CW! The star is set to play opposite Tian Richards in the network’s new series, Tom Swift.
Based on the book series, and a spin-off from their hit series, Nancy Drew, the series follows the serialized adventures of its titular gay, billionaire inventor (Richards) who is thrust into a world of sci-fi conspiracy and unexplained phenomena after the shocking disappearance of his father. Tom takes to the road on a quest to unravel the truth, leaving behind the comforts of his usual moneyed lifestyle, all while fighting to stay one step ahead of an Illuminati-scale group that’s hellbent on stopping him. Tom’s missions will require his genius and flair for innovation guided by love, romance, friendship and the mysteries of the universe yet unsolved.
Murray will play Zenzi Fullerton, who is efficient and effervescent but nobody’s fool. She’s been Tom’s best friend since childhood and considers him family – and she’s one of the few people who can keep up with Tom and read him for filth when necessary.
The show will air on the network during its 2022-2023 season.
