Annie Ilonzeh to Star in ABC’s ‘Charlie’s Angels’

Drew Barrymore’s Flower Films and Sony Pictures TV are behind the Miami-set series

"General Hospital" star Annie Ilonzeh has reportedly landed one of the three leads in ABC's highly-anticipated reboot of "Charlie's Angels," according to Deadline.

Drew Barrymore's Flower Films and Sony Pictures TV are behind the Miami-set pilot, which finds a new trio of sexy private eyes working for a mysterious man of means (Robert Wagner).

Ilonzeh will play Kate, an athletic yet brainy ex-cop who happens to be a master of martial arts. While the character is described as the most serious of the three Angels, she also knows how to have fun when the moment allows.

Three Caucasian actresses — Farrah Fawcett, Kate Jackson and Jaclyn Smith — starred in the original cast of the hit '70s series.

Ilonzeh recently appeared on another series reboot, the CW's "Melrose Place," as well as HBO's "Entourage." She's represented by Vincent Cirrincione Associates.
