The Jury - Archie Panjabi to Star

Jan 30, 2016

The Good Wife alum Archie Panjabi is ready to return to series television.

The actress has signed on to star in ABC anthology The Jury, The Hollywood Reporter has learned. The actress, who was among the most sought-after this pilot season, had fielded multiple offers.

The anthology series is described as 12 Angry Men meets podcast Serial. It follows a single murder trial as seen through the eyes of the individual jurors, exploring the biases and experiences that influence the jurors’ judgment, and how their preconceptions change along the way.

Panjabi will play Kim Dempsey, the drama's protagonist. The character radiates quiet strength and is described as a force of nature cloaked in a professional demeanor who isn't interested in making friends but instead in finding the truth. She’s a crusader — someone who’s always had/is always looking for a cause. She’s been accused of jumping from cause to cause in the past, and maybe that’s true, but nobody can accuse her of not doing a good job while she was there. When viewers meet Kim in the pilot, it’s been less than a year since she was ripped from the cause she thought she’d champion until her death.

Additionally, The Illusionist and Limitless helmer Neil Burger has been tapped to direct the project, from Sony TV and ABC Studios.
