Strus, repped by The Talent House, will play Estelle who lives in rural Georgia and has custody of Letty’s ten year-old son Jacob. After the “nightmare” of her daughter Letty, Estelle sees Jacob as her do-over. She talks tough and is very serious about being Jacob’s guardian. But in her efforts to be a good mother she may be doing even more damage. Like Letty, Estelle has dark demons…and way too much fun. Kinney, repped by Brookside Artist Management, is Christian, Letty’s substance abuse counselor. A mentor and father figure to a woman who lives at her lowest point. Christian doesn’t always hear the truth from Letty, but he’s lying to her, as well, not only about his own sobriety, but also about why he’s really “helping” her. Strus also recurred on Wayward Pines. Kinney’s other TV credits include Black Box and a role on Showtime’s upcoming drama series Billions.

21:30 - Arrow - Season 4 - David Ramsey Interview
Thanks to arrowshielfan for the heads up.
Executive producer Wendy Mericle told press at an Arrow screening that Diggle’s search to find out why his brother was killed will “take him to a dark place.” He’ll be keeping secrets from the team and, essentially, doing “all the things he once condemned Oliver for. How’s that going to reverberate?” The writers are excited to explore what happens when Diggle is no longer the moral compass Oliver can refer to.

20:45 - Imaginary Friend - Live Action Comedy with CGI Animation Receives Pilot Order at ABC from The Goldbergs Producer
EXCLUSIVE: In a very competitive situation, ABC has landed Imaginary Friend, a comedy blending live-action and CGI animation from Oscar-winning Disney feature animator Patrick Osborne and The Goldbergs team of creator/executive producer Adam F. Goldberg, executive producer David Guarascio, Happy Madison and Sony Pictures TV. The project has received a pilot production order, which has a series penalty attached.
Written by Goldberg and Guarascio and co-created by Osborne, Imaginary Friend centers on a thirtysomething bachelor whose life is turned upside-down when he finally meets the love of his life, a divorced working mom with three kids. This triggers even more upheaval when the slightly unhinged imaginary friend he created as an only child suddenly reappears in his life to help him navigate the transition from single guy to family man. I hear the imaginary friend character will be a CGI creation in a live-action environment. Goldberg, Guarascio, Osborne and Happy Madison executive produce.
ABC, which won the project in a bidding situation, had been considered a natural home for Imaginary Friend as the network carries The Goldbergs and is a sibling to the Walt Disney Animation Studios where Osborne has been based. Additionally, ABC has another hybrid comedy on the air, The Muppets, which combines actors and puppets.
Osborne, who worked as animator on such Disney movies as Bolt, Tangled andWreck-It Ralph, made his writing and directing debut with the studio’s 2014 animated short Feast which won an Oscar earlier this year.
