About CASTLE:
The hit mystery series CASTLE stars
Nathan Fillion and
Stana Katic. The series centers on
Richard Castle (Fillion), a famous mystery novelist and divorced father raising his teenage daughter, while being kept grounded by his Broadway diva mother. He is creatively blocked until the NYPD questioned him in connection with a series of murders staged to imitate crime scenes from his books.
Castle finds inspiration in NYPD Detective Kate Beckett (Katic), a bright and aggressive homicide detective with a fascination for odd and offbeat cases stemming from the years-old unsolved murder of her own mother. Though they instantly clash, sparks of another sort began to fly, leading both to danger and a hint of romance as Castle steps in to help find the copycat killer. Once that initial case is solved, Castle and Beckett continue to investigate strange homicides in New York, combining Castle's writer intuition and Beckett's creative detective work.
CASTLE also stars
Tamala Jones as Medical Examiner Lanie Parish,
Jon Huertas as NYPD Detective Javier Esposito,
Seamus Dever as NYPD Detective
Kevin Ryan and

Susan Sullivan as Martha Rodgers. Castle is produced by ABC Studios and is distributed by Disney-ABC Domestic Television. Andrew Marlowe is the show's creator/executive producer, along with executive producers
