After launching her career on teen dramas "Degrassi: The Next Generation" and "90210," Toronto-born actor Shenae Grimes-Beech embraced the more mature role of Jacqueline Cooper on CTV's new police series "The Detail."
"I've literally never even played a grown-up, really," she said in an on-set interview.
"The Detail" centres on three homicide detectives played by Grimes-Beech, British actress Angela Griffin, who spent many years on the popular soap "Coronation Street," and Wendy Crewson ("Saving Hope"). Vancouver-raised David Cubitt ("Medium") also stars in the series, which premieres March 25.
Interviewed last July on the Toronto set, Grimes-Beech said the show is about "three generations of women who are brilliantly balancing home life and work life without it even being talked about."
Her character is mentored by Griffin's Det. Stevie Hall. Their boss is Crewson's Staff Insp. Fiona Currie, head of a metropolitan homicide division or police "detail."
At 28, Grimes-Beech is the youngest of the trio and thrilled to be finally getting more adult roles.
"This is really the most bad-ass character I've ever gotten to play," said Grimes-Beech, who also had a string of family-friendly roles in TV movies.
