The Oaks
The Hollywood Reporter reports today that british lasses Gina McKee and Sienna Guillory have been cast in the upcoming FOX pilot "The Oaks".
Written by David Schulner and to be run by Shawn Ryan, "Oaks" tells the intertwined stories of three families -- a young couple who have just lost a child in 1968, a family of four in 1988 and a pregnant couple in 2008 -- who live in the same house and are haunted by a restless spirit.
McKee will play the wife in the 1988 family, a harried mother of two struggling to keep passion alive in her marriage. Guillory will play the 2008 couple's neighbor with Asperger's syndrome who went to school with the father-to-be and shares a secret with him.
The casting of McKee and Guillory continues the trend from last development season of casting U.K. actors as American characters in lead roles.
Michael Cuesta is directing the pilot for "Oaks," which is slated to begin production in November.
