Kerry Bishé has joined the cast of Showtime’s Penny Dreadful spinoff City of Angels, according to The Wrap.
City of Angels will be set in 1938 Los Angeles, a time and place deeply infused with Mexican-American folklore and social tension.
Creator John Logan will still be the upcoming spin-off series’ creator, writer and executive producer. The show’s production is scheduled to start this year with Michael Aguilar (Kidding) to serve as executive producer.
The actress will play a character named Sister Molly, described as a “gifted orator” and “charismatic evangelist” who struggles with the complexities of her personal life.
