Heather Lind to Star in the YouTube Series DARK CARGO
YouTube is trying to shift their original content away from scripted series, but one of the shows they had already picked up was Dark Cargo. The latest news about the series is that Heather Lind will star as the female lead opposite Chris Messina and RJ Cyler. Lind’s character will be Ava who is described as “[s]exy, confident and strong-willed, Ava is the wife of long-haul trucker Joe and the mother of their 5-year-old daughter.”
“Dark Cargo is described as a high-octane, cliffhanger-driven neo-noir thriller set in the big-rig cab of Joe Dobbs (Messina) as he traverses the darkest nights of his life. What begins as a random encounter with a disturbed stranger (Cyler) turns into a race against time, the police and even more malevolent forces. All the while, Joe just wants to get back to his family.”
I’m really interested to see what happens with this show. It sounds like it does have some potential, but I do often worry about these kinds of thrillers as I feel it’s not hard to go very wrong with them. Are you looking forward to this series?
Adam and Max Reid wrote the series which will be directed by Lodge Kerrigan.
