Penelope Ann Miller Joins Cast of ABC Untitled Drama Pilot

Deadline reports that Penelope Ann Miller will star opposite T.R. Knight in ABC's untitled drama pilot, executive produced by Reese Witherspoon.

Written by Meaghan Oppenheimer, the project will center on "the personal and professional life of Gemma, a ruthless divorce attorney in Dallas, which begins to unravel when her emotionally damaged, love-addicted sister resurfaces triggering self-destructive tendencies and exposing long-hidden family secrets."

Miller will portray Elizabeth Hamilton, described as "the wife of a Texas oil billionaire who is seeking revenge after having been left for a woman 20 years younger than she."

The actress recently co-starred with Nate Parker, Armie Hammer and Gabrielle Union in the Sundance hit, The Birth Of A Nation. Other TV credits include American Crime, Mistresses and Men of a Certain Age.
