GOTHAM KNIGHTS (The CW) - Oscar Morgan, Olivia Rose Keegan and Navia Robinson are the latest to be cast in the DC Comics series pilot. Morgan will play Turner Hayes: "Despite the murder of his biological parents, Turner remains resilient and driven to live up to his billionaire adoptive father's name. While charming and soulful, Turner has never quite felt comfortable in this world of wealth and privilege." Keegan portrays Duela: "Abrasive, unpredictable and a little unhinged, Duela is, above all, a survivor. Born in Arkham Asylum and abandoned by her father - the most dangerous man in Gotham - Duela forged herself into a brutal fighter and skilled thief." And Robinson plays Carrie Kelley: "Fearless, idealistic and plucky as hell, Carrie talked her way into being Batman's unlikely sidekick. If there's a burning building or a person in need, she's the first to rush in. Just as long as she's home by curfew." (Deadline.com)

(Deadline.com)
UNTITLED ROOKIE SPIN-OFF PROJECT (ABC) - Kat Foster and Felix Solis will star opposite Niecy Nash in the show's proposed spin-off series. Foster will play Casey Fox: "Fox has been on the job for five years and has succeeded by being both whip-smart and a team player. She is a rule-follower who knows how to work the system to get the best assignments. As a training agent, she is determined to instill conformity in her trainees - the way to survive and thrive is to fit in and get ahead." And Solis is Matthew Garza, "a 20-year veteran of the FBI who has been a true believer in the "Agency way" his whole career. A senior agent on the cusp of being promoted to a leadership role, Garza is tough, smart and filled with a little too much self-importance." (Deadline.com)
