Shameless star Emma Kenney has been tapped to join the eight-episode reboot as a series regular. Kenney — who has played Debbie Gallagher on all eight seasons of Showtime's Shameless — will take on the role of Harris, Darlene (Sara Gilbert) and David's (Johnny Galecki) daughter.
Harris was first introduced in season nine, when Darlene delivered prematurely. In the revival, Harris is a recent transplant from Chicago to Lanford, Ill., and not necessarily happy about it. She is determined to do better than her parents and grandparents. Her choices from clothes to friends should represent her drive to move up the socioeconomic ladder. She vacillates between typical teenage acting out to showing she actually has a big heart.
