The “Bosch” spinoff centered on cold case detective Renee Ballard is rounding out its main cast.
Michael Mosley (“The Calling,” “Signing Day”), Rebecca Field (“Shameless,” “The Gordita Chronicles”), Victoria Moroles (“Never Have I Ever,” “Plan B”), and the legendary Amy Hill (“Mom,” “Unreal,” “50 First Dates”) have all signed on as series regulars.
The quartet will appear alongside previously announced series lead Maggie Q as well as cast members Courtney Taylor and John Carroll Lynch.
Mosley will appear in the role of Ted Rawls, who is described as “a reserve officer who has reluctantly been assigned to cold cases to keep an eye on Ballard.” Field will play Colleen Hatteras, said to be “an enthusiastic and eccentric volunteer who believes her ‘intuitions’ could be helpful in solving cases.” Moroles will play Martina Castro, “a sharp legal intern who is eager to prove her worth to the department.” Finally, Hill will star as Tutu, “Ballard’s spunky grandma and biggest source of support.”
Mosley is repped by Gersh, Hansen Jacobson, and Persona PR. Field is repped by Greene Talent and Trademark Talent. Moroles is repped by CESD and Vision Entertainment. Hill is repped by SMS Talent, Inc.
As with “Bosch,” the show is based on the work of author Michael Connelly. The official description states the show follows Ballard, “who is tasked with running the LAPD’s new cold case division—a poorly funded, all-volunteer unit with the largest case load in the city. Ballard approaches these frozen-in-time cases with empathy and determination. When she uncovers a larger conspiracy during her investigations, she’ll lean on the assistance of her retired ally, Harry Bosch, to navigate the dangers that threaten both her unit and her life.”
The Ballard series is executive produced by Jet Wilkinson, Connelly, Michael Alaimo, and Kendall Sherwood. Alaimo and Sherwood will also serve as showrunners. Henrik Bastin and Melissa Aouate will executive produce for Fabel Entertainment with Jasmine Russ as co-executive producer. Jamie Boscardin Martin, Mark Douglas, and Trey Batchelor will also serve as co-executive producers. Theresa Snider will co-executive produce for Hieronymus Pictures. Amazon MGM Studios produces.
