One of the biggest finds during The Finder's brief run on Fox was child actress Maddie Hasson, who played delinquent gypsy girl, Willa.
Hasson has now landed her first role since wrapping The Finder — she'll appear in an upcoming episode of NBC's Grimm as a character very similar to wayward Willa.
"She plays the daughter of a nice guy," the episode's director and former Buffy producer, David Solomon, explains cryptically. "Father and daughter live together, mother's gone. And she gets kidnapped by family members and held hostage because they want to bring her back into the family."
Hmm...all sounds very normal for Grimm. Of yeah, there's one more nugget — the members of the family are supernatural creatures

Her character was what made The Finder unwatchable for me, so can't say I'd agree with her being exactly a big find. However it was Willa I did not like, so nothing against the actress, and hopefully on Grimm she'll get to play a better character.
ReplyDeleteThere was an episode like that on Buffy, with Tara's family. Looks good and I can't believe it's only 2 1/2 weeks until Grimm.
ReplyDeleteI completely disagree about Willa. The interactions between her and Walter were quite possibly the most well-done part of the show, especially during the second half of the season.
ReplyDeleteHasson was great on The Finder and it's nice to see she's still finding work.
ReplyDeleteShe was the best thing about The Finder.
ReplyDeleteI can not disagree with you because I gave up watching after 3 episodes.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed her part on the Finder, especially her dynamic with Walter. I'm guessing she's the daughter of Mark Pellegrino's coyotl character that was old friends with Hank?
ReplyDeleteI agree. The saddest part of The Finder getting cancelled to me was not finding out what happened with Willa's story.
ReplyDeleteSounds good! I loved her on The Finder and I can't wait for Grimm. :)
