Former Nikita star Lyndsy Fonseca and up-and-comer Elizabeth Cappuccino (Jessica Jones) have been cast as two of the leads of Syfy’s supernatural horror drama pilot The Haunted.
Written by Noga Landau (Tau, The Magicians), The Haunted centers on four siblings – Juno (Fonseca), Virgil, Eliis and Hester (Cappuccino) — who reunite following their parents’ deaths. As they try to overcome their fractured personal relationships they find that they must also face the literal ghosts from their past in order to survive.
Fonseca’s Juno Bradley is a woman of science who is forced to come to terms with a new perspective on the world after she realizes she can no longer rely on facts alone. Cappuccino’s Hester Bradley, Juno’s sister, is searching for a purpose and determined not to miss out on the fun.
