The Vatican - Anna Friel cast in Showtime Pilot

Share on Reddit

Anna Friel has been cast opposite Kyle Chandler in Showtime’s The Vatican – the same week that her Pushing Daisies co-star Lee Pace booked a cable pilot of his own.

The project, directed by Ridley Scott and penned by Paul Attanasio (House), is a provocative contemporary genre thriller about spirituality, power and politics – set against the modern-day political machinations within the Catholic church. Chandler’s character is the progressive Archbishop of New York, who causes a stir within the hierarchy of the Church.

Friel will play Kayla Duffy, younger sister/foil to Chandler’s Cardinal Thomas Duffy. Kayla is a sexually active, hard-partying New Yorker who rebels against the Church but loves her brother very deeply — and although they’re close, she’s a liability to his professional goals.
