Disney Plus’ National Treasure series has added yet another actor to its roster.
Breeda Wool is the latest actor to join the cast of National Treasure for Disney Plus. She joins the previously announced Lisette Alexis and Catherine Zeta-Jones, with Alexis set as the series lead, Jess. Zeta-Jones will serve as the series co-lead, Billie, while Wool will take on the role of Kacey, a sarcastic, kick-ass henchwoman who also serves as Billie’s second-in-command. Wool’s role will be a recurring one.
The National Treasure series will expand upon the movie franchise, while telling this new story through the story of Jess, a DREAMer in search of answers about her family — who embarks on the adventure of a lifetime to uncover the truth about the past and save a lost Pan-American treasure.
Also starring in the forthcoming series are Lyndon Smith, Zuri Reed, Jake Austin Walker, Antonio Cipriano and Jordan Rodrigues.
Mira Nair (Queen of Katwe) will direct the pilot episode from a script by Cormac Wibberley and Marianne Wibberley. Production on the series kicked off in mid-February in Baton Rogue.
National Treasure is being produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, Jon Turteltaub and Marianne and Cormac Wibberley.
