McDermott will play Detective Jack Larsen, a recent transfer to the Threat Assessment Unit from New York. His healthy confidence and quick thinking have gotten him into trouble in the past — a past he hopes to leave behind.
Liz Friedlander (“The Following,” “90210”) is directing the pilot, which comes from Outerbanks Entertainment in association with Warner Bros. Television.
