Two more stars have joined "Glee" and "American Horror Story" co-creator Ryan Murphy and "Dexter" co-executive producer Lauren Gussis' pilot for HBO.
Jennifer Jason Leigh and Anna Torv have joined "Open" in potential series regular roles if the pilot is ordered to series, TheWrap has learned.
Torv and Leigh will play lesbian partners, Windsor and Holly, respectively. Windsor is a yoga instructor who despite being with Holly for a long time feels an attraction to Grace (who has yet to be cast). Meanwhile, Holly is greatly dedicated to her acting career.
