Summer Glau joins The Cape

Hollywood Reporter tells us that actress Summer Glau has been cast in THE CAPE, a TV pilot for NBC about a former cop (David Lyons) who, after being framed as a criminal, becomes a masked superhero in order to clear his name. Glau’s role is Orwell, “a cute and intrepid investigative blogger” who is capable of “kicking ass” when the situation requires it.

HR writer Nellie Andreeva dryly notes that Glau “has probably starred in more cult sci-fi series than any other actress, with with stints on Fox’s Firefly, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, and Dollhouse.
