The Leftovers Amy Brenneman has signed on for the TNT mystery drama pilot Deadlier Than the Male, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
Executive produced by Big Little Lies' Bruna Papandrea, centers on a trio of characters, each with a mysterious and troubling past, including a woman who once looked into the eyes of a dangerous killer, a former serial predator desperate to find redemption and a grieving mother obsessed with finding her missing daughter. As each of them is pushed to the edge, the truth about their pasts and their motives grows ever murkier, blurring the lines between victim and perpetrator.
Brenneman will play Mary who, after years of searching for her missing daughter, has become a professional grieving mother. On one hand, her loss has made her a passionate advocate for vulnerable women, but on the other, the tragedy has given her new power and polish -- as well as a ruthless streak that makes her a threat to anyone who stands in her way.
