Carla Gugino Set To Star in New Crime Thriller Series LEOPARD SKIN
Carla Gugino (Watchmen, The Haunting of Bly Manor) is set to star in an upcoming crime thriller series for AGC Television titled Leopard Skin.
The story kicks off when “a criminal gang fleeing a botched jewelry heist is forced to hide out in a beachside estate where two women live in seclusion. Their world turns into a tension filled hothouse of secrets, betrayal and desire — all of which will come to the surface as the gang awaits their fate.”
Sounds like it’ll be a fun and intense show! The series was created by Sebastian Gutierrez, who wrote the screenplay for Snakes on a Plane and created the Cinemax series Jett. He also serves as showrunner. Gutierrez said in a statement:
“These are strange times we are all going through and after spending months locked in watching all the streamer fare I’d been missing, I feel audiences are ready for long-form storytelling to become bolder, more provocative and with more international appeal. I came up with Leopard Skin in that spirit and Stuart Ford, an early believer in Jett, was quick on the draw to jump into action to get the cameras rolling.”
AGC Television President Lourdes Diaz added:
“Sebastian came to us with an amazing script, a clear vision of how to execute an eight-episode series in the DR, and together we’ve assembled a terrific cast. We loved this project so much we decided to pull the trigger and fully finance Leopard Skin.”
Gugino is joined by Amelia Eve (The Haunting of Bly Manor), Gentry White (Palm Springs), Philip Winchester (Law & Order: SVU), Margot Bingham (The Walking Dead), Gaite Jansen (Jett), Nora Arnezeder (Safe House), and Ana de la Reguera (Narcos).
