Rosa Salazar (Parenthood) has been cast in Fox‘s drama pilot Boomerang, from John Wells Prods. and Warner Bros TV. It is about the Hamiltons — parents (Anthony LaPaglia and Felicity Huffman) and grownup sons (Michael Stahl-David and Patrick Heusinger) — who serve as assassins for the federal government. Salazar, repped by Seven Summits and TalentWorks, plays Olive, the ex-girlfriend who Sam (Stahl-David) has never forgotten. The casting stems from the talent deal Fox signed with Salazar following her co-starring role on the network’s comedy pilot Little Brother last year. She recently guest starred on Fox’s Ben & Kate.
Brit Ben Aldridge, repped by Anonymous and Hamilton/Hodell, rounds out the regular cast of the CW/WBTV pilot The Selection. He plays Prince Rafe, the younger brother of Prince Maxon (Michael Malarkey) who loves his country and takes his leadership role seriously — but he does have a secret.
Evie Thompson has joined the cast of the CW pilot Company Town, about the aftermath of a scandal at a Naval base. It centers on Krista (Gage Golightly) and Page (Stella Maeve) that touches the lives of both civilians and military personnel. Thompson, repped by Coast To Coast and Wishlab, will Page’s enthusiastic, yet emotionally scarred teen sister. She will next be seen in The Call and 2 Guns.

I loved Rosa in Parenthood, really talented
I don’t mean to stir up the whole American vs non-American casting debate, but I’m just making an observation. The CW has cast 10 lead actors in The Selection and only 1 of them is American. Not even any Canadians.
1 is American, 6 are British/English, 2 are Australian and 1 is Iranian. Again, not trying to start up anything, but really? An American series with 10 leads and only 1 of the actors is American?
Its also being filmed in Hungary
It’s true that most of them are British but who’s Iranian ?
Why is tv so white washed
Younger brother? really?
Love Rosa Salazar! A John Wells show could finally solidify her star potential.
Evie Thompson is a movie star! She is by far one of the most talented actors working today.
Obsesssed with Evie Thompson! They are lucky to have her. Fell in love with her in The Del Shores play “Yellow”
Agreed. He looks 33 not 23. whoever is the head of talent and casting at the CW needs their head checked and maybe their ego.
Apparently he’s 3 years younger than Malarkey and actually really good i hear.
Excited to ALP back on T.V.
Ok really people have too much time on their hands to comment on stupid crap. Maybe if we had some good american actors, they would cast them. It’s just an observation!
