Actor Jamie Bell, a BAFTA Award-winner known for his work on "Rocketman" and "Billy Elliot," has joined the cast of upcoming Apple TV+ original series "Shining Girls," according to a report Monday.
Bell will join Elisabeth Moss ("The West Wing," "Mad Men") and Wagner Moura ("Narcos") in the series adaptation of Lauren Beukes' 2013 best-selling novel, reports
Variety.
Described as a metaphysical thriller, "Shining Girls" follows a Depression-era drifter who discovers a key to a house that unlocks to different eras in Chicago's history. In order to travel through the portal, however, he must murder women burning with potential.
Moss will star as Kirby, a reporter who survived an assault by the primary antagonist in the 1980s, and is now hunting him down. Moura will play Dan, a journalist breaking news of the copycat attacks. Bell is set to co-star as Harper, a mysterious loner with a surprising connection to Kirby, the report says.
