Amazon’s “The Good Girls Revolt” has added “True Blood” actress Anna Camp, an individual with knowledge of the casting told TheWrap.
Camp, who appeared in featured roles in films “The Help” and “Pitch Perfect,” also signed on for National Geographic Channel’s miniseries “Saints & Strangers” last week, which TheWrap exclusively reported. She will be joined by Ron Livingston and “Mad Men’s” Vincent Kartheiser on the project.
“The Good Girls Revolt” is set in 1970s-era Newsweek magazine during the women’s rights movement. Camp will play Jane, a highly skilled, couture-wearing, straight-arrow star researcher at the magazine. The Sony Pictures TVpilot starts shooting in New York City next month.
Camp is repped by UTA, Authentic and attorneys Ira Schreck and Isaac Dunham at Schreck, Rose Dapello & Adams.
