Casting News - March 31, 2022

Hulu's Ramy & Reasonable Doubt; and Syfy's The Ark.






HULU's REASONABLE DOUBT
  • Paul Fox, Perri Camper, Nefetari Spencer, Tiffany Yvonne Cox and Shannon Kane have booked recurring roles on the upcoming drama starring Emayatzy Corinealdi. Fox previously recurred on HBO's Westworld and Paramount+'s SEAL Team. Camper starred for two seasons in BET's American Soul. Spencer recurred on IFC's Sherman's Showcase and HBO Max's South Side. Cox guest starred on CBS' Bob Hearts Abishola, Netflix's Space Force and Freeform's Good Trouble. Kane recurred on The CW's The Originals and BET's American Soul.
  • Fox will play Theo James, Brayden Mitchell's (Sean Patrick Thomas) CFO, a warm and genuine individual who is dismayed at all the controversy surrounding his boss, but also a man whose loyalty would make him cross some questionable boundaries.
  • Camper will play Kaleesha Moore, the Executive Vice President at Brayden's company. Smart and confident, she can fit into any room she steps into.
  • Spencer will play Sally, a straight-talking, good-humored doctor. She is the "ride or die" friend among Jax's (Corinealdi) group of close women friends.
  • Cox will play Autumn, the listener and caretaker of Jax's friends. She is happily married to her wife and considers herself Jax's best friend since tenth grade.
  • Kane will play Shanelle, the quiet "judger" of Jax's group of close friends. She and Jax have a complicated history that often puts them at odds.
HULU's RAMY
  • In her television series acting debut, supermodel Bella Hadid will appear in a recurring role on the comedy's upcoming third season. She is currently the April 2022 cover star of Vogue US.
  • No details were immediately announced about the character she will be playing.
SYFY's THE ARK
  • Christie Burke, Richard Fleeshman, Reece Ritchie, Stacey Read and Ryan Adams will star in the upcoming drama created by Dean Devlin and Jonathan Glassner. Burke previously recurred on TNT's Falling Skies and Netflix's Maid. Fleeshman recurred on Hulu's Four Weddings and a Funeral. Ritchie starred for two seasons in The CW's The Outpost. Read and Adams will make their television series acting debut.
  • Burke will play Lt. Sharon Garnet. A low-ranking officer, she is not one to embrace the spotlight but she finds herself rising to the occasion when tragedy strikes Ark One.
  • Fleeshman will play Lt. James Brice, who oversees Ark One's navigation systems.
  • Ritchie will play Lt. Spencer Lane. Another low-ranking officer, he believes only the strongest will survive and is resentful when his leadership skills are questioned.
  • Read will play Alicia Nevins, a brilliant young woman on the Waste Management team who is being wildly underutilized.
  • Adams will play Angus Medford, an insecure young man except when it comes to his specialty: horticulture and farming.
