The “Pretty Little Liars” spinoff “The Perfectionists” has cast Sydney Park and Eli Brown to round out the leading cast.
“The Walking Dead” alum Park will play Caitlin, who has her sights set on a future as a senator. Newcomer Brown will play Dylan, a gifted cellist who feels judged in his small town. The two join previously announced Sofia Carson, who will play Ava, and “Pretty Little Liars” stars Sasha Pieterse and Janel Parrish.
Kelly Rutherford (“Gossip Girl”) also joins the cast as Claire Hotchkiss, the founder of Hotchkiss Industries and the respected Beacon Heights University. Hayley Erin (“General Hospital”) will round out the cast in an unnamed role.
The Freeform drama is based off Sara Shepard’s book series of the same name, who also wrote “Pretty Little Liars.” The series focuses on the town of Beacon Heights, which looks perfect but where nothing is as it appears to be. The pressure for everyone in town to be perfect leads to the community’s first murder.
“Pretty Little Liars: The Perfectionists” is produced by Alloy Entertainment and Long Lake Media in association with Warner Horizon Scripted Television. I. Marlene King wrote the pilot and serves as executive producer with fellow “Pretty Little Liars” alum Charlie Craig, Lisa Cochran-Neilan and Leslie Morgenstein. Gina Girolamo will also executive produce.
7 Biggest TV Cliffhangers of 2015: From 'Game of Thrones' to 'Walking Dead' (Photos)
"Game of Thrones": Did Jon Snow really die? It would be impossible to start anywhere else. This is one question that we still don't have the answer to, though there's plenty of circumstantial evidence to suggest the broody Night's Watch Lord Commander (Kit Harington) will be coming back, despite being stabbed multiple times by men he thought were his brothers.
“Pretty Little Liars”: A new big bad? The series-long mystery of “A” may have finally resolved itself, but ABC Family’s biggest hit wasted no time setting up brand new danger for the girls in the second half of Season 6, which will see Aria (Lucy Hale), Spencer (Troian Bellisario), Alison (Sasha Pieterse), Hanna (Ashley Benson) and Emily (Shay Mitchell) five years later. Once again, it’s Alison at the center of the mystery, as the new teacher is warned by her friends, “He’s coming for you.”
“Veep”: Election results Season 4 of HBO’s political comedy seemed to be headed towards a coin flip -- would Selina Meyer (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) win re-election or lose to her rival, leaving her to scramble for some way to remain in D.C. in the show’s fifth season? Of course, departing Armando Iannucci had one more clever trick up his sleeve, and the 20th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution came into play. As Selina’s chosen VP Tom James (Hugh Laurie) seemed poised to become president on a technicality, he asked her one final question, “If that does happen, wanna be my Veep?”
“Arrow”: Grave consequences Welcome to the Jon Snow and Glenn Rhee club, Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards). The midseason finale of “Arrow” left the Green Arrow’s new fiancée unconscious, as a still unidentified grave from the season premiere looms. It may not end up being Felicity, but someone will die on this season of “Arrow,” and there’s probably no coming back from it this time around.
“Jane the Virgin”: Baby Mateo gets kidnapped We knew from the very beginning that Jane (Gina Rodriguez) would give birth in the Season 1 finale of The CW breakout hit, but we also pretty much knew there was no way this telenovela-inspired dramedy would leave everyone happily ever after. Indeed, within hours of Jane delivering baby Mateo Gloriano Rogelio Solano Villanueva, he had been kidnapped by the dastardly drug dealer villain, Sin Rostro. Luckily, Mateo was returned safe and sound to Jane and Rafael (Justin Baldoni) in the Season 2 premiere, but it was a long summer.
“How to Get Away With Murder”: Who shot Annalise? Annalise Keating (Viola Davis) isn’t really in the same kind of danger as the aforementioned names on this list, rather, the season-long cliffhanger on Season 2 of the Shondaland drama centered on who shot the series’ lead character. Flash-forwards put just about everyone on the suspect list, but it was in the midseason finale it was revealed that it was Wes (Alfred Enoch), urged on by Annalise herself with the revelation that his girlfriend was dead. And you thought you had it rough in school.
“The Walking Dead”: The death and life of Glenn “Game of Thrones” showrunners may be a little miffed that “The Walking Dead” resolved their “is this beloved main character actually dead?” mystery sooner than they did. While Glenn’s (Steven Yeun) fate was left unaccounted for during several episodes, with producers going as far as to remove the actor’s name from the show’s opening credits, the fan-favorite zombie apocalypse survivor did make it out. But “Walking Dead” fans will probably have major trust issues after this one.
