Gillian Anderson is a god. Entertainment Weekly reports the X-Files actress has been cast in Starz’ upcoming series American Gods.
Based on Neil Gaiman’s novel, the supernatural drama is a set in a modern world where gods and mythological creatures really exist. Bryan Fuller and Michael Green are executive producing the series.
Anderson will play Media, one of the New Gods who “thrives off the currency of human attention, growing stronger from the country’s increasing worship of screens, phones, and laptops.” Anderson joins fellow castmates Ian McShane, Cloris Leachman, Peter Stromare, and Chris Obi.
Season one of American Gods is currently filming.
