Kathryn Prescott has been tapped for a lead role in CBS’ The Dovekeepers…Prescott will play Aziza, a stunning teenage tomboy and expert archer who disguises herself in her brother’s armor to skillfully fight alongside the male warriors of Masada, even fooling Amram (Diego Boneta), her lover and fellow warrior.

Lucy Punch Comedy (FX)

FX has put in development a single-camera comedy project from actress Lucy Punch, frequent Sacha Baron Cohen collaborator Ant Hines and popular Danish comedian Casper Christensen. The trio will write and executive produce the single-camera comedy, with England-born Punch set to star. The untitled project follows a desperate English expat (Punch) who marries a death row convict so she can get a green card and stay in the States to pursue her dreams. Thinking that her terrifying, besotted husband soon will be out of the picture, Lucy’s world is turned upside down when he shows up on her doorstep, having been reprieved just minutes before his scheduled execution.
