Agatha - Clancy Brown to Co-Star
Sleepy Hollow's Clancy Brown will co-star opposite Rake's Bojana Novakovic as Agatha's estranged father in the one-hour drama pilot, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
Agatha is a character-driven procedural centered on Agatha (Novakovic), a former convict-turned-big-city criminologist who is brought in to help local police crack a case involving a perplexing disappearance. The chief detective she's been hired to help is her father, Detective Hank McAuliffe (Brown) -- and they haven't spoken in 15 years.
Described as rugged, handsome and cool, Hank -- a seasoned detective with the Philadelphia Police Department -- is a "salt of the earth" guy who also happens to be a struggling alcoholic. A stubborn man who is set in his ways, he is coping with the pain of estrangement from his child. Hank admires his daughter and her accomplishments from afar, but is skeptical about her "criminologist ways," preferring by-the-book police work instead.
