Yeah, I get they want to cast someone who is well known and might bring in a different audience. Katie in the book was also maybe mid-20s.

Do we think this will be a fall or January release? Hopefully, we don't have to wait until NEXT summer or fall.

It's hard to say. It's still listed as "in development" and there's no real info on where it'll be filmed or when.

[SouthernSweetieTX]

Since Taylor posted about it...I hope we don't have to wait too long.

Loved her in Big Love.

EXCLUSIVE: Jeanne Tripplehorn is set as a lead opposite Chris Pratt, Constance Wu and Taylor Kitsch in Amazon’s conspiracy-thriller series The Terminal List, based on Jack Carr’s bestselling novel. Pratt also executive produces the series along with Antoine Fuqua, who directs, and writer David DiGilio. The Terminal List is a co-production from Amazon Studios and Civic Center Media in association with MRC Television. Written by DiGilio, The Terminal List follows James Reece (Pratt) after his entire platoon of Navy SEALs is ambushed during a high-stakes covert mission. Reece returns home to his family with conflicting memories of the event and questions about his culpability. However, as new evidence comes to light, Reece discovers dark forces working against him, endangering not only his life but the lives of those he loves. Tripplehorn, who I hear has a one-year deal, will play Lorraine Hartley, the first female Secretary of Defense. Ambitious, savvy, and armed with a rough-hewn sense of humor, Hartley rose up the chain of command promoting a numbers-driven strategy that leaned heavily on SpecOps. But when tragedy strikes the Navy SEAL community, Hartley must act to protect James Reece (Pratt) and these valued warriors while grappling with the consequences of her own directives. DiGilio, who serves as showrunner, Carr and Pratt serve as executive producers alongside Jon Schumacher through Indivisible Productions, Fuqua through Fuqua Films and writer Daniel Shattuck. Tripplehorn was most recently seen in FX/Hulu’s Emmy-nominated limited series Mrs. America. She is currently filming The Gilded Age, Julian Fellowes’ historical drama for HBO. She previously starred for five seasons on HBO’s Big Love and earned an Emmy nomination for her role in the movie Grey Gardens. Her recent work includes the film Gloria Bell, starring opposite Julianne Moore, Brad Garrett, and Michael Cera. She is repped by Gersh and Brillstein Entertainment Partners.

I've liked Jean Tripplehorn since The Firm. I always thought she was so pretty.

It's been so long since I've watched The Firm. I like her though, she's a good pick.

The Firm was the first book that I read and I totally, completely, 100% HATED the movie!

[worthyoflove]

I think they've really reworked the script. Riley joining as Chris's character's wife.

Spoiler:

She's killed early on in the book, like, doesn't even have a scene that she's not dead in the book

With Taylor in LA, I wonder if that means filming on this will commence sooner rather than later.

If not filming, at least pre-production ....

Finally, something to look forward to. We should watch Chris's social media, he's fairly active.

[DaisyGirl14]

Amanda: I'm curious, are any of the other cast members of The Terminal List clients of the new agency that Taylor joined last year? For some reason, I thought Chris Pratt moved over to the new ship too ... am I mis-remembering??

[worthyoflove]

For sure probably pre-production. Table reads, etc.

Chris is still with UTA so not with Taylor's new management group. Riley's with CAA, Jeanne is with Gersh and Constance is with UTA.

I hope Taylor being in LA means production starts soon!
