Finally!

 

We have our Aspen! This is William Moseley, who you might remember from the Narnia movies. This picture is actually of William landing in Vancouver to start shooting! According to the writer/producers Liz and Sarah, shooting for the pilot starts in less that 48 hours! I cannot believe how fast this is going! I'm thrilled to see the trio cast, and I'm beside myself waiting to see what they do. I wish them all crazy great luck!

There have been several other roles cast, but it's getting way too hard for me to keep up with this kind of posting. From now on, I encourage people to check the Selection IMDb page for updates.

If I get any other concrete pilot news I can share, I will. For now, we wait and see!

Our queen, king, & a totally awesome rebel leader

More exciting casting news! Leonor Varela is Queen Amberly, Martin Donovan is our King Clarkson, and Peta Segeant is Gaia, a rebel leader.

Each time I see a new announcement, I just get giddy! The people in charge of the casting are doing a fantastic job. I look at Leonor and Martin and think "those two people could make someone who looks like Ethan!" and I'm so happy to see the royal family all together now. And Peta! I'm always afraid I'll say too much, but from what I've seen of the script, she totally looks up to the task of play Gaia.

Congratulations y'all! Welcome to the team!

More Casting News!

I just realized that I forgot to add the lastest addition to The Selection pilot cast. Sean Patrick Thomas is on to play Sylvan, one of the queen's advisors. I'd like to tell you something about this particular character, but I'll probably just get myself in trouble. Alas. I hate keeping secrests! Anyway, Sean has been super sweet, so go follow him on twitter.

Congratulations, Sean!

And now we have our Maxon!

Welcome to the Selection family, Mr. Ethan Peck. Gotta say, he's a total cutie. Approved! Also, now that I know he played a young Kelso on an episode of That 70's Show, I'm totally onboard. ;)

Congrats, Ethan!

We have our America!

If you missed me shouting about this on twitter and FB, I just want to let you know that America Singer has been cast for the pilot of The Selection! For all you Friday Night Lights fans, I'm sure you already know Miss Aimee Teegarden. She's absolutely lovely, and I can't wait to see what she does with the role.

Congratulations, Aimee!
