The 100 star Lindsey Morgan has landed a co-leading role in new TV series with Supernatural actor Jared Padalecki.
Lindsey will star in The CW's reboot of action series Walker, Texas Ranger, reports Variety.
Padalecki has already been confirmed as co-lead Cordell Walker - a character originally portrayed by Chuck Norris in the '90s series on CBS and the 2005 TV film Walker, Texas Ranger: Trial by Fire.
What to Read Next
Lindsey will play Walker's new partner Micki, who's born and raised in San Antonio.
Focused and perceptive, Micki has been in the Army and on the police force and knows well what it's like to be discriminated because of her gender.
A synopsis for the revival series has described Padalecki's character as a widower and father of two who comes back home after being undercover for two years, but discovers that there's much harder work to be done at home.
He will try to reconnect with his children, navigate clashes with his family, and find unexpected common ground with his new partner [Micki] (one of the first women in Texas Rangers' history), as he grows increasingly suspicious about the circumstances surrounding his wife's death.
Being Human writer Anna Fricke is developing the script for the pilot episode, while Padalecki, Lethal Weapon's Dan Lin and Lindsay Liberatore (LAX) are executive producing the new series.
Supernatural season 15 airs on Thursdays at 8/7c on The CW in the US. In the UK, the show airs on E4.
