Bojana Novakovic To Play Lead In CBS Drama Pilot ‘Four Stars’
Bojana Novakovic is set as the female lead opposite Wilmer Valderrama in Four Stars, CBS’ drama pilot from playwright/TV writer Becky Mode, CBS TV Studios, and studio-based Timberman/Beverly Productions.
Written by Mode and to be directed by RJ Cutler, Four Stars centers on two powerful rival families in the military community of Tampa, FL — the Buckleys and the Rodriguezes — who make decisions at the highest levels in the interest of national security.
Novakovic will play Ali Buckley, a sharp‐witted, Pulitzer Prize-nominated investigative journalist and the daughter of four‐star special ops legend General Buckley (Bruce Greenwood).
Valderrama plays Matt, the son of Gen. Rodriguez (Steven Bauer). Ashley Zukerman and Ana Cruz Kayne are set as Ali and Matt’s sibling, respectively.
Serbian-born, Australia-raised Novakovic recently recurred on Showtime’s Shameless and has a part in HBO’s Westworld. In features, she next stars in Beyond Skyline opposite Frank Grillo. Novakovic is repped by CAA, Management 360, Lisa Mann Creative Management in Australia and attorney Robert Wallerstein.
