Alexandra Daddario (Baywatch, San Andreas, Percy Jackson, American Horror Story: Hotel) has joined the cast of Why Women Kill, a darkly comedic drama, per Deadline, which was created by Marc Cherry (Desperate Housewives, Devious Maids) for CBS All Access.
Why Women Kill details the lives of three women living in three different decades: a housewife in the '60s, a socialite in the '80s and a lawyer in 2018, each dealing with infidelity in their marriages. The series will examine how the roles of women have changed, but how their reaction to betrayal... has not.
Daddario will play the lover of Taylor (currently uncast) and joins previously announced cast, Lucy Liu, Ginnifer Goodwin, Reid Scott and Sam Jaeger.
Daddario will play Jade. Seen in 2018. Stunningly beautiful, also sweet, she is Taylor's lesbian lover, extremely grateful to Taylor and Eli (Reid Scott) for letting her stay with them after being stalked by a dangerous ex. A neat freak who cleans compulsively, she impresses Eli who is thrilled to have his slacks and shirts ironed and the house kept in immaculate order. But neither Taylor nor Eli suspect that Jade may be a little crazy.
