The mystery’s over. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Sarah Shahi has been cast as the lead in CBS’ new Nancy Drew pilot, Drew.
Shahi currently plays Sameen Shaw on Person of Interest.
From writers Joan Rater and Tony Phelan, Drew follows an adult Nancy Drew (Shahi), who is now in her 30s and works as an NYPD detective. Earlier, we reported that Anthony Edwards and Felix Solis have also been cast in the crime drama.
What do you think? Are you a fan of the Nancy Drew books? Would you watch Drew?
Ok,now I’ll definately tune in…. Loved her on P.O.I. and missed her when she took her leave of absence. Don’t know how she’ll do as Nancy Drew, but who cares?
it is a good idea, but Sarah Shahi is not right for the part of Nancy Drew. Her tough girl demeanor does not fit the Nancy Drew brand .
the same actors just role from one show to the next. no one new, just the same ole same ole doing the same ole same ole. no wonder you can hardly tell one show from another
