Within the planted spinoff episode, which can air later within the season, Baccarin will play Mickey, a Sheriff’s Deputy for fifteen years who is aware of each nook of Edgewater … and each one among its inhabitants. That is her city and he or she’s fiercely protecting of it.
Baccarin emerged as a best choice for the position from the beginning and has been in negotiations for it since earlier than the vacations.
The sheriff-centered episode will not be thought-about a backdoor pilot as I hear the venture is anticipated to undergo one other growth stage earlier than a possible sequence order however its reception would seemingly be key for the offshoot’s probabilities of transferring ahead. A rep for CBS declined remark.
