Abigail Spencer (Rectify, Timeless) is set to star in Reprisal, a drama pilot from Hulu, Warren Littlefield (Fargo, The Handmaid's Tale) and A+E Studios per Deadline.
Written by Josh Corbin (StartUp) and directed by BAFTA-nominated Jonathan Van Tulleken, Reprisal is described as a hyper-kinetic revenge tale following a relentless femme fatale (Abigail Spencer) who, after being left for dead, leads a vengeful campaign against a bombastic gang of gearheads.

Having enjoyed some years of peace, she now finds her quaint lifestyle on the brink of unraveling. Prompted to embark on a mission to rescue her long-lost niece from the very gang that tried to kill her, she aims to exact her revenge every step of the way.
