This post, first published Jan. 30, has been updated with casting information for Clementine and info on two additional pilots shooting in Toronto.
TORONTO — A proposed TV series from the writer of Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life will be filmed in Toronto in March.
Cameras will roll on the pilot episode in March.
Australian actress Sarah Snook has been cast as the lead and David Strathairn — who starred in the short-lived Toronto-shot series Alphas — will play her father.
The pilot was scripted by Dean Georgaris, whose credits also include 2006’s Tristan + Isolde starring James Franco and 2003’s made-in-Vancouver thriller Paycheck with Ben Affleck.
He was also an executive producer on 2012’s Life of Pi.
Also serving as executive producers of Clementine are Mark Gordon (Criminal Minds, Grey’s Anatomy), Nicholas Pepper and Ilene Staple.
If picked up by ABC, Clementine could debut as a series next fall. The network’s last made-in-Toronto series, Lucky 7, was cancelled after two episodes.
Also shooting this season in Toronto are the pilots Agatha for ABC and Man Seeking Woman for FX.
