Kerry Bishé to Star in AMC Drama Pilot HALT AND CATCH FIRE

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Kerry Bishe will reteam with her 'Argo' co-star Scoot McNairy in an upcoming drama pilot for AMC from Chris Cantwell and Chris Rogers.

Set in the early '80s, HALT AND CATCH FIRE tells the story of "the personal-computing boom told through the eyes of three individuals - a visionary, Joe MacMillan (Lee Pace); an engineer, Gordon Clarke (Scoot McNairy); and prodigy Cameron Howe (Mackenzie Davis) - whose innovations directly confront the corporate behemoths of the time."

Bishe will portray Donna Clark, described as "Gordon's wife and the backbone of the family. She's a woman who on the surface looks sweet but has put up with a lot. She juggles a career, home life and also wears the pants In the Family in order to compensate ofr her husband's recent malaise."

Bishe and McNairy portrayed married couple The Staffords in this year's Academy Award winning film.
