According to Deadline, Kaci Walfall (Army Wives, Power) has officially been tapped to portray the superhero role of Naomi in The CW’s upcoming pilot.
She currently has a recurring role in CBS’ Queen Latifah-led The Equalizer series and will next be seen in the second season of Amazon Prime’s Modern Love.
Popular with all the kids in her military town, Naomi is unafraid to embrace her AP-student, comic book–loving nerdiness.
After more than three months since we first learned about the development of Ava DuVernay’s series adaptation of Naomi, The CW has finally found the perfect actress for the titular role, based on Brian Michael Bendis and David F. Walker’s DC comic series of the same.
