Gothica – Frankenstein Finds a Wife in Emma Booth
More casting news has hit for the ABC series “Gothica” as Emma Booth has joined the cast to play Frankenstein’s bride, Madeline Usher. No word yet on if she’ll ever be rocking that crazy beehive hairdo with the stripes.
The ABC drama pilot “Gothica,” is co-produced by the ABC Studio-based Mark Gordon Co. with “Reaper” creators Tara Butters and Michele Fazekas serving as executive producers/showrunners, working alongside creator/executive producer Matt Lopez (The Sorcerer’s Apprentice), who wrote the pilot.
Janet Montgomery (“Made in Jersey,” “Entourage,” Wrong Turn 3: Left for Dead, The Hills Run Red) will play Grace Van Helsing, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist from New York who takes over her family’s hometown newspaper. Dorian Gray (Chris Egan) provides her with the $20 million she needs to retain control of the paper, and she was romantically involved with Victor Frankenstein (Tom Ellis) years ago.
In this incarnation of the story Frankenstein runs a hospital that also does biotech research and believes that he may have a way to bring his recently deceased daughter back to life. Gray is a wealthy playboy.
More on this one soon!
