Laura Donnelly Cast as Lead in Joss Whedon's HBO Series THE NEVERS

Joss Whedon’s upcoming HBO series, The Nevers, has found its leading lady. Laura Donnelly, known for starring in the series Outlander, will star in the series, and can also be seen in the upcoming film Tolkien.

The Nevers is described as “a sci-fi epic about a gang of Victorian women who find themselves with unusual abilities, relentless enemies, and a mission that might change the world.” Donnelly will play “Amalia True, described as the most reckless, impulsive, emotionally damaged hero of her time.  A menace to stuffy Victorian society, she would die for the cause and kill for a drink.”

This sounds like a very different story than what we have seen before, and it sounds like it will be a fun and wild ride. I’m pretty willing to watch anything that comes from Joss Whedon, so it will be exciting to see more from this series. We will keep you posted as we know more. Does this sound like a series you’ll be into?
